Is Your Job Making You Ill?

Is Your Job Making You Ill? contains good sound advice from Dr Ellie Cannon. It is well worth reading for anyone who is struggling at work and needs a framework for thinking differently about it – Karen Mattison MBE, joint CEO TimewiseDr Ellie Cannon has produced an incredibly helpful guide to dealing with ill health at work. It’s not just for those who are unwell but for the people around them too. I have spoken to many staff in HR about stress and mental health related issues at work and I believe this book is a must read for them as well. Mental illness has become a rapidly increasing cause for concern within the workplace and very few people know how to navigate this. Dr Ellie’s book gives comprehensive advice and practical words of wisdom from her years of experience that will be extremely reassuring to anyone who is struggling – Jonny Benjamin, MBE, mental health campaigner, writer, filmmaker & public speakerGroundbreaking … so relatable given the current way we approach our work – Amy Wall * Woman’s Way *The book’s comprehensive chapters are heavily imbued with [Dr Ellie Cannon’s] own brand of infectious enthusiasm for sorting out work-related health issues … [the book] will, I am sure, be empowering for large numbers of patients … I am quite happy to recommend the second addition the the Cannon canon to those GPs who have patients who are struggling – William Mackintosh, GP and Chair of the Royal College of General Practitioners, South West Wales Faculty * The British Journal of General Practice *
