Work-Life Inclusion: Broadening Perspectives Across the Life-Course

Examining a range of under-explored work-life interface issues as they affect different stages of a worker’s life, the authors share new insights into complex issues that affect us all.

Topics explored include the wellbeing of students who work, solo-living staff, those on complex fertility journeys, perinatal mental health, chronic illness, menopause, and retirement.

Work-Life Inclusion: Broadening perspectives across the life-course will be primarily useful for two main audiences: 1) Academics and students in the fields of work and employment, gender studies, and those interested in health and wellbeing 2) People management practitioners and employers.
