The consequences of ineffective coping are evident in the health of individuals and organizations. Coping, Health and Organizations brings together a wealth of research and thinking about coping in occupational settings.

Coping, Health and Organizations begins by looking at measurement of coping with stress. The theoretical and psychometric considerations discussed in the opening section of the book explore the principles for the successful evaluation of coping and the effectiveness of organizational support. The second section examines work problems from coping with acute disasters at work to coping with subjective health problems in organizations. The third section (Organizational Interventions) contains chapters not only on organizational interventions designed to reduce stressors, but also on coping with the stress of contemporary organizational challenges. The book concludes by looking at the debates of the past and discussing the future of coping with work.
