As many as one in four adults in the workforce will suffer from
psychiatric illness in a given year. Such illness can have serious
consequences -- job loss, lawsuits, workplace violence-yet the
effects of mental health issues on job functioning are rarely
covered in clinical training. In addition, clinicians are often
asked to provide opinions on an employee's fitness for work or an
evaluation for disability benefits, only to find themselves
embroiled in complex legal and administrative conflicts. A unique
collaboration between a renowned clinical professor of psychiatry
and a noted legal expert, Evaluating Mental Health Disability in
the Workplace approaches the topic from two distinct areas: the
legal context and issues relevant to disability and
disability-related evaluations, and the interplay of factors in the
relationship between work and psychiatric illness. From this dual
perspective, the authors advocate for higher professional standards
ensuring that employers, evaluees, or third parties are provided
with the most reliable information. Key features of the book: A
robust assessment model of psychological disability in the
workplace Practice guidelines for conducting workplace mental
health disability evaluations Legal and ethical aspects of
employment evaluations, especially as they differ from clinical
procedure Examination of the process of psychiatric disability
development Issues specific to evaluations for Social Security,
Workers' Compensation, and other disability benefit programs Review
of relevant administrative and case law. As an introduction to
these complex issues or for the further improvement of evaluation
skills, Evaluating Mental Health Disability in the Workplace is a
timely reference for psychiatrists, psychologists, forensic mental
health specialists, and attorneys in this field.
