With job insecurity and precarious employment at an all-time high, and burnout labelled as the new worker pandemic, this incisive book sets out to initiate debate and fuel learning in the continually evolving field of work psychology.Bringing together a diverse group of international experts, the editors pose critical questions that look to the future of research in the field: is job insecurity still relevant in modern employment situations or has it been embraced as part of working life? Is precarious employment still as non-standard as we think? Is burnout more than a hype? And where are we when it comes to interventions in those areas? Chapters offer conceptual and empirical accounts to respond to these issues in research, examining the challenges of finding and using appropriate measurement instruments and future-proofing traditional concepts in light of modern employment conditions.Looking to the future of occupational health research, this book will be an essential resource for students and scholars of employment relations, organizational and occupational psychology, and human resource management. Its investigation of union participation and new employment situations will also benefit HR specialists, union representatives and policy makers.
