Blue collar workers are a group at 'high risk' from job stress and related illness. Machine pacing, work overload, shiftwork, the impact of new technology - these are some of the factors identified in stressful working conditions. The objective of this book is to examine current knowledge of these conditions and associated stress problems, and to suggest 'intervention strategies' to help alleviate, or reduce the effects of these conditions, as well as suggesting ways in which workers and managers can be helped to cope with job related stress. The book has been written by some of the foremost stress researchers and practitioners in this field and will be important reading for both students and teachers of applied and occupational psychology, together with personnel managers, occupational nurses, and medical practitioners.
