Yet much of the writing on this subject so far has been on stress suffered by people exposed to serious turmoil such as war and ethnic conflict. "Workplace Trauma" is an extremely welcome presentation of the subject of stress in the workplace. This book explores the ways that traumatic events impact the psychological well-being of organizations and the employees that work within them. Disasters, accidents, crime, injury and death are considered and the main groups of employees at risk from trauma are identified. Creation of organizationally appropriate trauma care programs tailored to meet the particular needs of organizations and individuals is discussed. Theory and the latest research together with practical advice provide essential guidance to inform organizations and practitioners on the ways they can reduce the incidence and impact of psychological trauma. |
