Assembling the Pieces

Résumé du livre

"The figures and statistics are astounding. In any given year, one in five people in Canada experiences a mental health problem or illness. Last week, half a million Canadians missed work because of a mental health problem or illness. Consider that two-thirds of Canadians spend 60% or more of their time at work and that no workplace is immune, no matter the size or the sector. The need to encourage, support, and help our Canadian organizations and institutions manage mental health issues within their workplaces in obvious. While our health is primarily our own responsbility, the workplace can and does play a significant role in our ability to manage both our physical and psychological health. The workplace can play a role in helping or hindering our psychological well-being." --Introduction.
