In our complex, fast changing society, health is strongly
influenced by the continuously changing interactions between
organisations and their employees. Three major fields contribute to
health-oriented improvements of these interactions: occupational
health, organizational health and public health. As currently only
partial links exist amongst these fields, the book aims to explore
potential synergies more systematically. Considering the high
mental and social demands in a service and knowledge sector
economy, the first part of the book focuses on work-related
psychosocial factors. As a large proportion of inequalities in
health in developed countries can be explained by inequalities in
working conditions, those psychosocial factors with a particularly
high public health impact are highlighted. As addressing these
psychosocial factors requires to involve the organization as the
key change agent, the second part covers approaches to improve
public health through organizational level health interventions.
The last section takes a look into the future of occupational,
organizational and public health: what are the future challenges
regarding occupational health and how can they be tackled within
and beyond the organizational level. Overall, this integrating book
will help to broaden the evidence-base, legitimacy and efficacy of
occupational- and organizational-level health interventions and
thus increase their public health impact.
