<i>'Well-being and stress have become a reality in our work lives. Burnout, job insecurity, and precarious employment lead to poor employee outcomes. Extraordinary leadership, gratitude, and psychological capital lead to positive well-being. This volume, written by leading scholars in the field, provides current and comprehensive research on the nature of stress and well-being in the contemporary workplace. It also covers topics on leadership interventions, new work hazards, psychologically healthy workplace practices, and mindfulness at work, with implications for managers and organizations.'</i>

<i>'This volume brings together an impressive cast of contributors, international experts in the field, and provides much needed insights connecting work to health, delving into the evidence across countries, and occupations, inspiring empirically-based practice and public policy to improve worker health and well-being. (Un)Fortunately, due to the bad and good of work, it has never been more timely.'</i>
