Is Work Good for Your Health and Well-being? Gordon Waddell, A Kim Burton. 2006. Increasing employment and supporting people into work are key elements of the Government's public health and welfare reform agendas. This independent review, 'Is Work Good for Your Health and Well-being?', commissioned by the Department for Work and Pensions, examines scientific evidence on the health benefits of work, focusing on adults of working age and the common health problems that account for two-thirds of sickness absence and long-term incapacity. The study finds that there is a strong evidence base showing that work is generally good for physical and mental health and well-being, taking into account the nature and quality of work and its social context, and that worklessness is associated with poorer physical and mental health. Work can be therapeutic and can reverse the adverse health effects of unemployment, in relation to healthy people of working age, for many disabled people, for most people with common health problems, and for social security beneficiaries. paperback, 246 pp. ISBN 0117036943. $50.00

Concepts of Rehabilitation for the Management of Common Health Problems. :Gordon Waddell, A. Kim Burton.  Jun 2004. There is now broad agreement on the importance of rehabilitation and the need for better occupational health and vocational rehabilitation services in the UK1. The responses to the Green Paper Pathways to work were generally supportive across the political spectrum (DWP 2003b). The key features of early intervention, easier access to more skilled support to seek and move into work, the development of new work-focused rehabilitation programmes, and engagement of key stakeholders - particularly employers and family doctors - were welcomed by a wide range of organisations. However, there is considerable uncertainty about what 'rehabilitation' is, and about its (cost)-effectiveness, particularly for the common health problems that cause most sickness absence and long-term incapacity. Key Features: Aims to develop a theoretical and conceptual basis for rehabilitation of common health problems, with the goals of job retention, return to work and reintegration; To consider the implications for: healthcare and clinical management; employers, trade unions and insurers and occupational health; rehabilitation policy. 98 pp. paperback. ISBN 0117033944. $30.00
