Managing Trauma in the Workplace Summary

Managing Trauma in the Workplace: Supporting Workers and Organisations by Noreen Tehrani (Employee Support Training and Development, Twickenham, UK)

Managing Trauma in the Workplace looks at the impact of trauma not only from the perspective of the employees but also from that of their organisations. In addition to describing the negative outcomes from traumatic exposure it offers solutions which will not only build a more resilient workforce but also lead to individual and organisational growth and development.

This book has contributions from international experts working in a variety of professions including teaching, the military, social work and human resources. It is split into four parts which explore:

the nature of organisational trauma
traumatized organisation and business continuity
organisational interventions
building resilience and growth.

Managing Trauma in the Workplace is essential reading for anyone with responsibility to help and support workers involved in distressing and traumatic incidents as a victim, supporter or investigator.

Managing Trauma in the Workplace Reviews

Having operated for many years in both the counter terrorism and organised crime arenas I felt I had an understanding of mans capacity to inflict pain on others. During the last number of years however I have witnessed the impact on staff of dealing face to face with the horrors of child abuse. Noreen Tehrani's work should be compulsory reading for anyone responsible for the health and well being of staff who routinely confront violence, trauma and child abuse. If you are responsible for people operating in this environment you will be better at your job after reading this work. - Jim Gamble, Chief Executive, Child Exploitation and Online Protection Centre

This book will be extremely useful for a range of professionals and students. It enhances and advances our understanding of the impact of trauma in the context of the workplace. Case studies and recent research are combined with practical tools and a discussion of the complex issues which face those of us working in organisations, to demonstrate how we can minimise the impact of trauma on the organisation itself and its people. - Alison Dunn, Head of Treatment Services, Occupational Health, Transport for London, UK
