Summary

Work-site health promotion is generally thought to be a good thing, but little research has been conducted on the other side of the work-health nexus: how employers factor health considerations into workforce management and productivity control. With the advancement of work-site health promotion in contemporary organizations, Holmqvist and Maravelias argue that this narrow focus, and the typical uncritical standpoint towards initiatives which are taken in the name of employees' health, is inadequate.
