Apologies for any cross-posting. Dear list member, I have been asked by the coordinator of a major piece of national research on health at work to post the following invitation to you to participate (see below). If you are interested, please contact the researchers right away. Kevin Dr. Kevin MAGUIRE CPsychol MCIEH, Senior Lecturer in Public Health, Division of Criminology, Public Health and Policy Studies, School of Social Sciences, Nottingham Trent University, Burton Street, Nottingham, NG1 4BU. UK. Telephone ++ 44 (0) 115 848 5540 __________________ Dear Occupational Health Professional, I am writing to invite your organization to take part in a major new study on health at work. The "Well-Being at Work in Context" study looks at how the organizational context can impact on the quality of working life, and ultimately, work-related health and well-being. One of the largest in this area, the study is funded by the Economic and Social Research Council, and is in line with major developments and investment by the government and national research bodies on this topic. Data will be collected via an online survey, sent to all employees in your organization. We will provide tailored feedback to participating organizations relating to a number of key factors such as performance, well-being, and absenteeism. At the end of the project, organizations will also be able to use the questionnaire instruments that will be developed in this study. The researchers will also develop guidelines for the management of health and well-being at work. For additional information on the aims and benefits of the study please see: http://wellbeingincontext.wordpress.com/about/ or you can download a document with more details on the study from: http://wellbeingincontext.files.wordpress.com/2009/10/invitation-to-part icipate_091001-v2.pdf We would welcome your participation and would be happy to discuss any questions you may have. For additional information you can contact Dr Maria Karanika-Murray ([log in to unmask], 0115 8482425) or Dr George Michaelides ([log in to unmask], 0115 8482718).
