Abstract:
There is extensive research detailing the strong link between healthcare professional wellbeing and the delivery of dignified, safe patient care. While a career as a psychological practitioner is often perceived as fulfilling, it is thought to also generate professional and personal strains which may impact on wellbeing. Paper 1 presents a systematic review examining the prevalence of burnout among practitioner psychologists and the relationship between burnout and specific personal demographic and work-related variables: age, years in service, working hours, gender and work setting.

Abstract:
Globalization has had a profound impact on the business environment of organizations and on the lives of employees in most countries. Previously sheltered markets were suddenly opened up to intense international competition. Organizations had to improve the efficient and effective utilization of resources to retain and gain market shares. Even organizations which are still prospering today in the face of serious competition, cannot be sure of continued success in the next financial year.

Abstract:
Recent research suggests that democratising the workplace is an effective way of improving productivity and wellbeing. But few studies have focussed on how to democratise the workplace. This study aims to explore how organisations can democratise the workplace via employee reward strategy, and how this impacts productivity and wellbeing. I hypothesised that a ‘high road strategy’ to employee reward – maximising value rather than minimising cost – would be the most effective way of improving workplace productivity and wellbeing.

A democratic workplace is one where workers as a body have the right to determine the internal organization and future direction of the firm. Worker co-operatives are a type of democratic firm.

Much has been written about the supposed benefits of worker co-operatives for workers and for society.

Abstract:
Australian workers’ compensation figures consistently reveal that physical and psychological injuries pose a costly burden to the Australian economy. Since the 1980s, many employers have increasingly been providing workplace massage programs to their staff as one initiative to redress this trend. Masseurs have promoted the effectiveness of this intervention for improving musculoskeletal disorders and reducing stress, and claim massage therapy contributes toward increased employee engagement with the workplace, thus resulting in increased productivity and reduced levels of absenteeism.
