Brief Book Synopsis
In a subtle way, there’s been a steady decline or erosion of the past rigid working conditions that employees used to enjoy. And, it would be hard to argue against why’ this has slowly but surely been occurring; as, the shifting ‘nature of the employment contract’ has started to impact many global workplaces. And, often in a negative way.
As the author of the “Workplace Wellness - The Essential Healthy Workplace Guide”, Stevie White was quite alarmed what his research was highlighting. For example, businesses of all sizes are often seeking help and more psychologists are seeing more employees who can’t cope.
Increasingly, research is showing that many workplaces are becoming toxic - as, more and more employees appear to be suffering workplace stress or becoming exposed to bullying behaviors; or, experiencing burn-out due to excessive working hours. Job dis-satisfaction is also often on the radar.
This book delves into the nitty-gritty in relation to what’s causing these workplace problems, and provides some fruitful strategies that can help organizations not only attract skilled people, but also keep them. Becoming a ‘mentally healthy workplace’ is vital in today's working environments and health promotion programs are becoming a necessity. This book shows you how’ to get you there.
