Health and work organization

• In WHP, there is a need for an organizational approach, as has already been mandated in preventive OHS management. This approach calls for changes in organizational systems that improve an individual’s chance of becoming healthy. The aim is that health becomes an essential issue in the corporate strategy and policy as well as the management control system of the company. WHP ought to be an intrinsic and central part of the organizational system rather than something that is forced through legislation or is the subject of occasional programmes offered to the employees. Health must be considered in its broadest sense, with the realization that the essential parts of organizational workplace health are complex and broad-reaching. However, to accomplish this goal, many of the problems that hinder the recognition of health as a company resource have to be resolved. Our book aims to contribute to this resolution.
