Work can cause, contribute to, or trigger disease, and very often does so (pathogenesis). But it can also be a powerful promotor of health and wellbeing (salutogenesis). Much of the outcome depends on our working and living conditions. Two eminent scientists in this field, Cary L. Cooper and Michael Leiter, focus on both of these two aspects in this new, highly knowledgeable and extremely relevant volume. -Lennart Levi, Emeritus Professor of Psychosocial Medicine, Karolinska Institutet, Sweden

This Companion provides an informative and up-to-date collection of articles by highly regarded scholars and practitioners regarding the nature, causes, and consequences of workplace wellbeing (and ill-being). Importantly, a range of practical interventions at the employee and organizational level are provided, making it a valuable resource for students, practitioners, and scholars. -Ashlea Troth, Associate Professor, Griffith Business School, Griffith University, Australia
