Abstract
Editor's Note: About a year ago the organizers of the conference entitled Workers' Health and Return-to-Work in a Changing World of Work approached NEW SOLUTIONS about doing a special issue to publish research presented at the conference. We were happy to agree because of the alignment of our goals and values, specifically the use of community-engaged research to mobilize knowledge in the service of justice for workers. Now we are very happy to present this issue which is the result of our collaboration. We believe that NEW SOLUTIONS readers, especially those engaged with precarious and other vulnerable workers or with workers' compensation and/or return to work will find a lot of value in this issue.-Darius Sivin.
期刊介绍:
New Solutions delivers authoritative responses to perplexing problems, with a worker’s voice, an activist’s commitment, a scientist’s approach, and a policy-maker’s experience. New Solutions explores the growing, changing common ground at the intersection of health, work, and the environment. The Journal makes plain how the issues in each area are interrelated and sets forth progressive, thoughtfully crafted public policy choices. It seeks a conversation on the issues between the grassroots labor and environmental activists and the professionals and researchers involved in charting society’s way forward with the understanding that lack of scientific knowledge is no excuse for doing nothing and that inaction is itself a choice.
