| amazon employee assistance: Managing Psychosocial Hazards and Work-Related Stress in Today’s Work Environment Ellen Pinkos Cobb, 2022-08-08 Today’s evolving world of work makes it imperative for employers to manage psychosocial hazards (PSH) and risks leading to work-related stress. This book contains essential, general, and country-specific information and templates for the successful management of hazards to prevent psychological harm in the workplace. Acknowledged as global issues affecting all workers and industries, PSH are work factors that have the potential to lead to physical or psychological injury and stress, relating to how work is designed, organized, and managed, and to work relationships and interactions. This book advances the idea that management of PSH, and psychological health and safety, is part of the duty of care of today’s responsible and ethical employers to employees, and that U.S. employers should recognize this responsibility. Clear and easy to follow, this guide presents comprehensive information on addressing PSH, discussing measures taken internationally (laws, guidance, and resources from Europe, Canada, Mexico, Australia, and Japan), and a new global standard on psychological health and safety at work. (Note: At times within this book, and Part II in particular, punctuation may be added to quoted provisions for ease of reading and for consistency.) Practitioners and students in the fields of management, occupational health and safety, human resource management, ethics and compliance, occupational health psychology, and organizational psychology will come away with a deeper understanding of the importance of PSH and their management. |

| amazon employee assistance: Change for Good Paul Klein, 2022-03-15 An action-oriented approach for businesses to solve the world’s most urgent social problems — and benefit from doing so. More than a year into a global pandemic, profit and shareholder value are no longer the primary metric of business success. Customers, shareholders, and communities are demanding that companies do good, do more, and do better. In Change for Good, Paul Klein shows how companies must move beyond what he calls “corporate social responsibility light” and demonstrate how they can help solve social problems that have been defined as UN Sustainable Development Goals. Change for Good is a new system for making social change through business that reflects Paul’s experience over the last 35 years. One of the core principles of Change for Good is including people with lived experience of social problems in identifying promising solutions and collaborating to bring these solutions to life. This methodology can create impactful and sustainable social change in society in ways that aren’t possible when executives make decisions in their boardrooms that are intended to impact the lives of vulnerable people. Through personal experiences, case studies, and practical tools, Change for Good will inspire readers and their organizations to make the shift from a passive social responsibility to taking action to help solve the world’s most pressing social problems. |

| amazon employee assistance: Healing Body and Mind Roger Kathol, Suzanne Gatteau, 2007-03-30 It doesn't make sense to treat Dan's bleeding ulcer, without attention to the depression that spurs him to drink alcohol excessively, which contributes to ulcer development. Nor is it prudent to ignore Nancy's anxiety that prevents her following through on chemotherapy for breast cancer. The connections are obvious, yet today connecting treatments for mind and body is a rare occurrence. Mental health and substance-abuse disorder assessments and interventions are separated by the payment mechanics of health plans, which encourage independent delivery of services. Dr. Kathol, a veteran internist and psychiatrist, shows the physical, emotional, social, economic and legal effects of what he calls headless health care. He illustrates with patient stories the profound impact that emotional issues and/or psychiatric disorders have on physical health and, conversely, the impact medical illness has on mental health. This book begins with stories of real patients suffering with concurrent behavioral and physical disorders who are forced to navigate a health care system that fosters what Kathol calls inferior care, escalating the costs and perpetuating personal impairment. He calls for health system reorganization wherein behavioral health becomes an integral part of physical health—integrated health care. |

| amazon employee assistance: Getting Lost Matthew H Bowker, Amy Buzby, 2025-05-08 With contributions from Matthew H. Bowker, Amy Buzby, Jack Fong, Evangelia Galanaki, Jill Gentile, Nathan Gerard, Theofilos Gkinopoulos, Dan Livney, Elliott Schwebachand, and Michael J. Thompson. The prime example or idee clef that unites the chapters of this volume is the experience of the global Covid-19 pandemic from 2019 to 2023, in which we witnessed forms of isolation and withdrawal that meant something more than separation. Withdrawal and isolation work on the self, although they may not do so consciously. Whereas it is possible to be separated from others simply as a matter of fact and from the 'outside,' Getting Lost focuses on complex internal and psychopolitical processes involving retreat or removal of selves from the worlds of politics, society, and culture. When we feel isolated or we withdraw ourselves, something tends to arise in our place: be it a defense system, a constellation of symptoms, or the deeply repressed psychic material giving rise to either or both. Thus, it was not coincidental that, as millions died from Covid, and as millions more experienced severely 'broken sociality' in the Covidian world of risk, quarantine, and/or lockdown, we also found ourselves witnessing explosions of extremism in popular discourse, in large-scale border closures, in encroachments on women's and reproductive rights, in physical attacks on the Capitol Building in Washington, DC, in domestic and spousal violence and youth suicide, in a war of aggression waged by Russia on Ukraine, and much more. We advance the term 'psychopolitical isolation and withdrawal' in order to capture not only temporary periods of isolation but also detachments from reality and perverse attachments to unreality, visible on small and large scales. This partial or perverse facing of our self-experience and shared experience suggests the possibility that the post-Covidian era brings with it altered relationships to both the private and the public home, and, with them, the meanings of citizenship, sociality, publicity, thinking, and being. Plainly put, the impact of Covid-19 worldwide has damaged people's relationship to reality and we are still coming to terms with and uncovering the many ways in which this manifests. This book aims to signal an immediate, existential threat to psychosocial and political life and to inspire further thinking, debate, and work on these vital topics that affect us all. |

| amazon employee assistance: Unsustainable Ellen Reese, Juliann Emmons Allison, 2023-08 From famously humble origins in founder Jeff Bezos's garage, Amazon has grown to become one of the most successful businesses in history, able to deliver virtually anything to virtually anywhere thanks to its vast worldwide network of fulfillment centers. Unsustainable looks inside the company's warehouses to reveal that the rise of Amazon, and warehousing more generally, is made possible by the exploitation of workers' labor and communities' resources, including the natural environment. Juliann Emmons Allison and Ellen Reese expose the real-world repercussions of these pernicious practices through a chilling case study of the socioeconomic and environmental harms associated with the largely unchecked growth of warehousing within Inland Southern California, one of the nation's largest logistics hubs, where Amazon is the largest private-sector employer. Tracing the rise of grassroots resistance to Amazon and the warehouse industry by workers and communities across this region, the country, and the globe, Unsustainable provides fresh insight into one of the most important and far-reaching struggles of our time-- |
