Over recent years, many companies have developed an awareness of the importance of an active, rather than passive, approach to wellbeing at work. Whilst the value of this approach is widely accepted, turning theory into effective practice is still a challenge for many companies.

The Routledge Companion to Wellbeing at Work is a comprehensive reference volume addressing every aspect of the topic. Split into five parts, it explores different models of wellbeing; personal qualities contributing to wellbeing; job insecurity and organizational wellbeing; workplace supports for wellbeing; and initiatives to enhance wellbeing. The international team of contributors provide a solid foundation to research and practice, including contemporary topics such as architecture, coaching, and fitness in the workplace.

Edited by two of the world’s leading scholars on the subject, this text is a valuable tool for researchers, students, and practitioners in HRM and organizational psychology.

Sir Cary L. Cooper, CBE, is the 50th Anniversary Professor of Organizational Psychology and Health at the University of Manchester, UK. He is President of the CIPD, President of the British Academy of Management, and President of RELATE. In 2015 he was number one on HR Magazine's "Most Influential HR Thinkers" list, and he received a Knighthood from the Queen in 2014 for his contributions to the social sciences. Michael P. Leiter is Professor of Organizational Psychology at the School of Psychology, Deakin University, Geelong, Australia. He has published widely in all the leading journals in the field, and is a global scholar on job burnout, speaking throughout the world on this topic and on organizational health and wellbeing more generally.
