Science and Politics of Work Disability Policy

Posted on: October 1st, 2019 by Ellen MacEachen

The Science and Politics of Work Disability Prevention focuses on the science and politics of work disability systems. It addresses how and why, despite the mounting scientific evidence base and law and policy changes, the problem of work disability remains. Authors from 13 countries consider social security system changes to stem ‘work disability’ in their jurisdiction: their ideals, what worked and what didn’t work and why. They consider not only research evidence, but also realities of implementation, budgets, and political favour. The book is edited by Ellen MacEachen and is published by Routledge.
