Description
Work related stress represents a huge cost for worker health and -productivity and is broadly regarded as an important social -determinant of global health. The Australian Workplace Barometer (AWB) project was developed in order to provide national benchmarks needed to develop best practice standards in the area of worker psychological health and wellbeing. The results as published in this book:• Provide nationally representative data on psychosocial risk levels and working conditions. • Build upon existing knowledge and understanding of Âpsychosocial risk factors such as bullying and harassment, and work-familyÂconflict. • Investigate relationships between psychosocial risk and Âworkplace outcomes such as employee health and productivity. • Determine the cost of poor employee wellbeing to businesses based on aspects such as depression, absenteeism. and Âpresenteeism. • Identify industries and occupations at risk. • Provide evidence to support strategies for prevention and Âintervention. This book provides a step towards social action and work Âenvironments that will stimulate problem solving, creativity and Âinnovation at work rather than despair through compromised health and wellbeing.
