OverviewTackling mental ill-health of the working-age population is a key issue for labour market and social policies in OECD countries. OECD governments increasingly recognise that policy has a major role to play in keeping people with mental ill-health in employment or bringing those outside of the labour market back to it, and in preventing mental illness. This report on Australia is the ninth and last in a series of reports looking at how the broader education, health, social and labour market policy challenges identified in Sick on the Job? Myths and Realities about Mental Health and Work (OECD, 2012) are being tackled in a number of OECD countries. It concludes that policy thinking in Australia shows well-advanced awareness both of the costs of mental illness for society as a whole and of the health benefits of employment. However, challenges remain in: making employment issues a concern of the health care services; helping young people succees in their future working lives; making the workplace a safe, supportive psychosocial environment; and better designing and targeting employment services for jobseekers with mental ill-health Full Product DetailsAuthor: Organisation for Economic Co-operation and DevelopmentPublisher: Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Imprint: Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Dimensions: Width: 15.60cm , Height: 0.90cm , Length: 23.00cm Weight: 0.254kg ISBN: 9789264246584ISBN 10: 9264246584 Pages: 171 Publication Date: 18 December 2015 Audience: Professional and scholarly , Professional & Vocational Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: In Print  This item will be ordered in for you from one of our suppliers.
