The UML Center for Promotion of Health in the New England Workplace (CPH-NEW) invites you to join us for a seminar, "Work as a Social Determinant of Mental Health" on Friday, June 24 from noon to 1 p.m.

Tony LaMontagne is CPH-NEW Research Affiliate and Professor of Work, Health and Wellbeing at Deakin University, Australia. Professor LaMontagne’s career has been dedicated to developing the scientific and public understanding of work as a social determinant of health, and translating this research into policy and practice to improve workplace and worker health. Specific areas of interest include workplace mental health, improving job quality and psychosocial working conditions, and evaluating policy interventions. His research and publications have influenced policy & practice in workplace health both nationally and internationally, including OH&S authorities, Beyond Blue, the (Australian) National Mental Health Commission, the US Occupational Safety & Health Administration, and the World Health Organization. Before completing his doctoral degree at Harvard University, Tony earned M.Ed. and B.S. degrees in Education at University of Massachusetts Amherst. We are excited to welcome him back to UMass Lowell for this talk.

Registration is required.

This seminar is hybrid. You may join by Zoom or on North Campus (Perry Hall).
