Description

Explore the complex relationship between employment and mental well-being with Stress at Work: A Sociological Perspective. Published by Routledge as part of the Policy, Politics, Health and Medicine Series, this book offers a deep look into the theoretical foundations of occupational stress. It tracks the evolution of stress research from the early work of Hans Selye through the development of bio-physiological, psychological, and sociological models. This text provides real-world context by reporting on a specific study regarding stress and ill-health within a large manufacturing organization in Australia. Readers will gain insights into how factors like low self-esteem and poor mastery affect psychological outcomes and physical health symptoms. It is an essential resource for those studying the social sciences, medical sociology, or organizational health, providing a clear academic framework for understanding how work environments impact human health.
