Interdisciplinary Center for Healthy Workplaces

Our Mission: Re-inventing our workplaces by integrating and applying interdisciplinary sciences to achieve worker health and psychological well-being. We do this by capitalizing on what we already know, developing new thinking, innovating, and implementing proven and tested solutions. How we operate: We build relationships with researchers, practitioners, policy makers, service providers and corporate representatives by holding conferences, meetings, workshops and other gatherings in order to learn about the ways health and well-being issues are addressed and the barriers to achieving greater progress. We review and evaluate research studies for their quality and scientific-soundness and add those we believe meet established scientific standards to our knowledge repository. We also review and evaluate interventions, programs and practices to identify ones that hold promise for improving employee health and well-being. We support new research and case studies to further our understanding of this area. We write about and communicate our findings and recommendations for the public through various channels: conferences, publications, presentations, social media, public workshops, and our website.
