[Livre] Mental disorders at work

C laire Le Roy-Hatala has been working for twenty years to remove the taboo of mental health disorders at work. His book The truth about psychological disorders at work comes from the thesis she conducted on the subject twenty years ago. And her commitment as a sociologist, consultant and trainer which has since constituted her career. Far from a scientific publication, it offers here a sort of guide based on testimonies from workers, managers and even employers. Overview of possible disorders, whether pre-existing or subsequent to work, advice from people concerned, description of quasi-clinical vignettes… All this is interspersed with boxes presenting resources (associations, support systems, legal provisions, role of the occupational medicine, support methods, etc.) accessible and useful to all audiences, workers and employers alike.
