From the Back Cover

The world of work is very different now to that of twenty years ago. Longer hours, frequent changes in culture and structure, the loss of lifetime career paths and demanding new technology are all impacting on employee well-being and ultimately, on productivity.
This volume gathers together key articles on organizational and individual well-being into three sections. Section one has productivity and performance as its focus. It includes employee control and health, workplace bullying, working time, job and off-job roles and betrayal. A second section examines gender issues for men and women and the final section concentrates on increasing pressure at work. It includes chapters on work adjustment, coping with drugs and alcohol and respite or other breaks from stress.
Written by leading scholars with international reputations in their fields, this collection provides a high quality review that will be invaluable to researchers and practitioners alike.
