Work, Health and Wellbeing cover

The relationship between health and work is widely recognised as complex and multifaceted. In the context of an ageing population our ability to enable people with health issues to continue working is becoming more critical. This multi-disciplinary volume brings together original research from diverse disciplinary backgrounds investigating how we can define and operationalise a bio-psychosocial model of ill-health to improve work participation in middle and later life.

"This book works very well as a collection of different perspectives on health in the workplace. It offers a wide range of material that is scholarly and written by people with expertise in their areas of interest." Chris Yuill, Robert Gordon University
"The interdisciplinary nature of the network of contributors recognizes the complexity of the issues." The Canadian Journal of Occupational Therapy
