| Summary: | "Job Stress in a Changing Workforce" presents original research studies and new thinking on the ways that job stress can affect individual workers. With the rapid changes in the workplace over the past decade--in particular, the shift away from manufacturing toward service industries and the impact of intensified international competition--workers have been faced with new challenges and new sources of stress. /// [The book] examines how economic and demographic trends affect stress among workers, providing data from national and international studies. The 1st major section of the book focuses on workforce diversity and investigates how the gender, ethnocultural background, and age of the individual worker relate to job stress. The 2nd major section focuses on work and family. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2004 APA, all rights reserved). |
