Bodies @ Work
by Dr Peter Ghin
Host: Dr Peter GhinApproximately half our working population is managing at least one chronic health condition. Factors including an ageing population, poor access to healthcare and affordable housing, social dislocation, precarious work, as well as the long tail of the pandemic, are compounding the prevalence of chronic illness in people of working age. Bodies at Work interviews guests who are researching and working at the intersection of chronic illness/disability and employment. We aim to amplify conversations about how illness effects our working lives and what we can do to improve work outcomes for people living with disabling chronic conditions.Any feedback or ideas for future topics or guests can be sent to [email protected] at Work is produced by Cultural Value
