This third edition offers a fully updated, comprehensive survey of
the field of occupational health psychology, including its history,
theories, models, interventions, and empirical research. Grounded
in the NIOSH Total Worker Health® model, this new edition on
Occupational Health Psychology (OHP) reflects the expanding scope
of the field, as well as recent changes in the nature and
organization of work. It is an essential resource for professionals
and scholars who seek to prioritize worker safety while promoting
their health and well-being. OHP is informed by research from
psychology subdisciplines including I/O, human factors, cognitive,
social, health, clinical, counseling and developmental psychology,
as well as public health, preventive medicine, occupational
medicine, ergonomics, industrial hygiene, and industrial
engineering. Historically, OHP focused on preventing illness,
injury, or distress of workers in their work environments. The
field today has expanded to encompass more proactive, holistic
approaches to worker well-being that also includes workers’ job
and life satisfaction, positive emotional experiences, sense of
meaningfulness, and social support and relationships. OHP has also
become more interdisciplinary and global.
