New book - Work, Health and Wellbeing
Professor Chris Phillipson, Centre for Social Gerontology and Dr Ross Wilkie, Research Institute for Primary Care Sciences, together with Sarah Vickerstaff (University of Kent) have published an edited collected of papers entitled Work, health and well-being: The challenges of managing health at work (Policy Press, 2012).
The volume draws together a range of disciplines to develop different approaches designed to improve work participation in middle and later life. The book is unique in combining perspectives on mental and physical health, examining the challenges for organisations in supporting people with long-term disabilities.
The papers arose from a research network at Keele and Kent universities, supported through the Medical Research Council Lifelong Health and Wellbeing Programme.
