Abstract

This paper explores the changing nature of work over the last couple of decades, and its impact on the health and well-being of employees. It highlights the recent UK government project on Mental Capital and Mental Wellbeing, exploring the recent research on work and well-being and their implications for policy and interventions in the future. This reflective piece on the contemporary workplace concludes by raising a series of questions about work?life balance that society will need to answer over the next decade.
