Workers Health Handbook

Workers face many obstacles to keep healthy, wealthy, and wise. Imagine living in a community where most needs are met. This is wealth: a condition in which people are free from the economy. They enjoy a full and safe life without racing endlessly to make money to pay bills and keep up with the dominant society.

The conditions of society demand that workers prioritize production over health. Many people struggle to make it through the workday. After all, how many people want to be reduced to a work machine? This book presents methods to empower people to engage and thrive in habits that prevent illness and injury. It's a foundation for a better life.

Ideas precede action. Developing ideas to motivate activities that prevent sickness and accidents can orient people to stop doing things that undermine a decent life. Turning goals into habits can empower workers to take control of their lives in beneficial ways.

If people don't actively prevent cancer, heart disease, stroke, and diabetes, it's more likely that they will succumb to the common traps of society. Most of the activities people engage in serve and expand capitalist and nationalist interests. Another orientation may enable people to create the conditions for living a life worth living.
