About

The Centre for Work + Wellbeing is a research leader in the field of organisational studies on healthy work and wellbeing. Our researchers come from a wide range of disciplinary backgrounds, including members with expertise in work psychology, human resource management, management, organisational behaviour, public sector management, change management, human factors, occupational safety and public health.

Our approach

Centre members share a systems thinking approach to work and wellbeing, based on the premise that wellbeing and mental health outcomes for employees are a product of the work environment, rather than purely a result of personal factors. For this reason, our members focus their research attention across the broad work system and beyond, to consider the interacting role of individual, job, organisational, societal and cultural issues in the analysis of worker mental health and wellbeing.

A history of collaboration

Centre for Work + Wellbeing researchers have a history of collaborating across a large number of funded work and wellbeing studies, including major government-funded studies on psychosocial risks and wellbeing, and research on flexible working and diversity, undertaken in collaboration with public and private sector partners.
