The Oxford Handbook of Occupational Health is intended to be a concise practice- based guide primarily for occupational health (OH) practitioners including general practitioners (GPs) who practice OH on a sessional basis. The book will also be useful to therapists who work with and support OH services, e.g. physiotherapists, rehabilitation, and behavioural therapists, and those preparing for professional examinations in Occupational Medicine. Although the Handbook is primarily for those practicing in Occupational Health, it meets important and growing needs of much wider readership, particularly those who have responsibility for the following: assessing managing work- related health conditions, managing absence and return to work, development of health, and well- being programmes at work and evaluation of work- based interventions for improving health outcomes. The need for practical expertise in these areas is driven by increasing evidence that good work is good for health. Furthermore, health care professionals now recognize that work should be regarded as a clinical outcome. Changes in legislation and evidence- based practice also reinforce the importance of making suitable workplace adjustments to support individuals as part of their recovery and rehabilitation at work. The new approaches to the management of work- related health issue advocate a more integrated approach with involvement of employers, employees, OH services, and the National Health Service (NHS). Such collaborations particularly in the development and implementation of health and well- being strategies require good understanding of OH concepts and principles as well as evidencebased practices which are central to the OH handbook and will further broaden its readership.
