Such illness can have serious consequences -- job loss, lawsuits, workplace violence—yet the effects of mental health issues on job functioning are rarely covered in clinical training. In addition, clinicians are often asked to provide opinions on an employee’s fitness for work or an evaluation for disability benefits, only to find themselves embroiled in complex legal and administrative conflicts. A unique collaboration between a renowned clinical professor of psychiatry and a noted legal expert, \u003cem\u003eEvaluating Mental Health Disability in the Workplace\u003c\/em\u003e approaches the topic from two distinct areas: the legal context and issues relevant to disability and disability-related evaluations, and the interplay of factors in the relationship between work and psychiatric illness. From this dual perspective, the authors advocate for higher professional standards ensuring that employers, evaluees, or third parties are provided with the most reliable information.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKey features of the book:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA robust assessment model of psychological disability in the workplace\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePractice guidelines for conducting workplace mental health disability evaluations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLegal and ethical aspects of employment evaluations, especially as they differ from clinical procedure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExamination of the process of psychiatric disability development\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIssues specific to evaluations for Social Security, Workers’ Compensation, and other disability benefit programs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReview of relevant administrative and case law.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs an introduction to these complex issues or for the further improvement of evaluation skills, \u003cem\u003eEvaluating Mental Health Disability in the Workplace\u003c\/em\u003e is a timely reference for psychiatrists, psychologists, forensic mental health specialists, andattorneys in this field.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2014-10-07\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781489982841\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4419-0152-1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 322\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer New York","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49475180003468,"sku":"9781489982841","price":107.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781489982841.jpg?v=1777994845","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781489982841","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
