With the growing influence of the positive movement, this book explores the implications of using a positive approach as opposed to a stress management one and compares the types of interventions they each require. From a positive perspective, there is a need to understand the characteristics of healthy, thriving, and flourishing people and organizations. This book explores the implications of using a positive approach as opposed to a stress management one. Some of the intervent ions  described in Creating Healthy Workplaces target individuals and their attitudes and behaviours, others target workplace relationships, work units and the wider organization. Outcomes such as reduced occurrences of smoking, obesity, depression, elevated blood pres sure, accidents and workplace injuries, presenteeism, absence and staff turnover are reported. The factors associated with the success of these interventions are identified and advice is given as to how interested individuals and organization s mig ht proceed to develop worksite interventions on their own. 0aWork environmentxPsychological aspects. 0aJob stress. 0aIndustrial safety. 0aOrganizational effectiveness.1 aBiron, Caroline,eeditor.1 aBurke, Ronald J.,eeditor.1 aCooper, Cary L.,eeditor. 0aPsychological and behavioral aspects of risk series
