The Healthy Work Lab at FIU aims to build better workplaces through rigorous research, the dissemination of best practices, and leadership development. Our studies seek to understand the psychosocial factors and processes that influence employee well-being, health, and safety across a broad range of worker populations. Our findings inform evidence-based practices for the creation and promotion of healthy workplaces in which employees can produce and feel valued.
The Healthy Work Lab is committed to creating workplaces for employees with developmental disabilities can thrive. Our Ready to Lead training program aims to empower leaders to manage diverse teams and increase organizational readiness to create and sustain employment opportunities for this talented workforce. Through research and education, we strive to support organizations seeking to launch or expand their disability employment efforts.
