Healthy Work: Stress Productivity and the Reconstruction of Working Life, Paperback/Robert A. Karasek

Descriere & specificații

Evidence is accumulating that in many contemporary work environments people are literally working themselves to death. But what do we really know about job-related stress and illness? Based on a ten-year study of nearly five thousand workers, this path-breaking book by a distinguished industrial engineer and sociologist and a specialist in industrial medicine identifies a clear connection between work-related illness and workers' lack of participation in the design and outcome of their labors. About the Author: Robert Karasek is professor of work environment at the University of Massachusetts, Lowell. T res Theorell, a physician, is also a professor at Sweden's National Institute for Psychosocial Factors and Health at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm.
