Anyone wishing to advance the workplace wellbeing within their organisation, will find this book and its actionable insights, invaluable."" Dr David Roomes, Chief Medical Officer, Rolls-Royce ""Wellbeing is now firmly established as a critical business and societal agenda, but we need good evidence and proven practice to provide the foundation of what we do to improve wellbeing outcomes. The authors have brought together a very wide range of insights and research from the fields of occupational health and wellbeing to provide practice guidance to us all. This should be a major contribution to wellbeing strategies in every organisation."" Peter Cheese, Chief Executive, Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD) ""This compilation is an essential resource for anyone concerned with people, safety, and psychological security in the workplace. The editors have assembled a world class team of global scholars and practitioners who are knowledgeable authorities in their respective domains and locations."" James Campbell Quick, Distinguished University Professor, Emeritus, The University of Texas at Arlington, USA Colonel (Ret.), United States Air Force ""This is a most refreshing and at times challenging book. It sees Occupational Health as linked to the well-being of the worker. This linkage is a relatively new and welcome proposition. It has been accelerated by the pandemic. Occupational Health is now more visible and seen to be of critical importance to many more employers. Occupational Health practices connected to well-being can be seen to encompass a broader conceptualisation of prevention health promotion and management of workplace hazards."" Professor Dame Carol Black, Expert Adviser on Health & Work, National Health Service England & Public Health England"
