This timely Research Handbook explores the emerging psychosocial risks that threaten mental health and productivity in the workplace. Leading experts examine how the world of work is evolving at an unprecedented pace and assess whether existing organizational intervention strategies are still effective at responding to new challenges.
Contributors discuss recent developments facing employees and organizations including technostress, digital overload, 'always-on' culture and AI-driven changes. They present practical and innovative strategies for the proactive prevention of these issues, from rethinking workplace structures to strengthening leadership engagement and policy development. The Research Handbook further investigates the role of stakeholders, the effectiveness of national standards and the importance of adapting frameworks to the evolving nature of work. Providing valuable insights into the ongoing debates on workplace intervention, the book advocates for a healthier and more resilient work environment.
Scholars and students of human resource management, organizational and occupational psychology and organizational behaviour will greatly benefit from this prescient Research Handbook. Thorough and detailed, it is also a vital read for policymakers and practitioners in human resource management and occupational health and safety, as well as psychologists and counselors.
