Résumé

During the past two decades, the nature of work has changed dramatically, as more and more organizations downsize, outsource and move toward short-term contracts, part-time working and teleworking. The costs of stress in the workplace in most of the developed and developing world have risen accordingly in terms of increased sickness absence, labour turnover, burnout, premature death and decreased productivity. This book, available in paperback for the first time, provides all the major theories of organizational stress from the leading researchers and writers in the field.

Academics and postgraduate students of business, psychology, and occupational health. Occupational health and human resource management professionals.
