Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Following the success of the Special Issue “Job Satisfaction and Mental Health of Workers”, we are pleased to announce its second edition, “Job Satisfaction and Mental Health of Workers: Second Edition”, aims to take a broader view of the same issues, with a special focus on the role of contexts and organizations in the well-being of working people. Indeed, a change in organizational culture which puts people at the center, is one method of improving workers’ well-being.
This Special Issue aims to collect studies concerning recent advances in workers’ mental health, including occupational stress, well-being, burnout, job satisfaction, work-related quality of life, etc., taking into account the context in which people work and the role of organizations as facilitators or obstacles to well-being. Submissions of original articles, systematic reviews, short communications, and other research works on related topics are welcome. All manuscripts will follow standard journal peer-review practices, and those accepted for publication will appear in this Special Issue. We look forward to receiving your contributions to this topic and this Special Issue.
Prof. Dr. Vincenza Capone
Guest Editor
