The Work, Family & Health Network promotes research on the relationships between work stress and the health of workers and their families. The Network conduced a number of inter-related studies on how company policies and work life affects the health of their employees and family members. Phase 1 research involved pilot workplace interventions to document and improve employee retention, engagement, and the health and well-being of workers and their families. These studies tested interventions and outcome measures to subsequently design a collaborative, multi-site research project.
