The HealthyWorkplaces Interdisciplinary Model of Well-being: A Focus on Psychological States

HealthyWorkplaces is helping to spearhead the paradigm shift from single variable models of wellness toward an interdisciplinary model of well-being that gives prominence to the physical and psychological states that correlate with and give rise to the development and sustainability of worker health and well-being. As a think tank, with a mission to do and apply interdisciplinary research, HealthyWorkplaces seeks to re-conceptualize worker health and  well-being.  We seek to understand worker health and well-being less as a single variable associated exclusively with physiological indices of health (wellness) and more toward a multivariate framework that recognizes the primacy of psychological states and principal drivers in the context of considering other worker and organizational attributes.
