Introduction to Work Organization

“Most people spend the majority of their waking hours at work and commuting to and from work. The way work is organized—the number of hours spent working, what hours of the day we work, the pace and intensity of work, how we feel about our jobs (e.g., whether we have or do not have employment security, whether our jobs provide us opportunities for skills development and growth), our social relationships at work—can affect our health.”
