History
The idea for the journal emerged in discussions that took place in the 1990s among Steven Sauter and his colleagues at the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, Gary VandenBos of the American Psychological Association, and James Campbell Quick, a professor of psychology at the University of Texas at Arlington. With Quick named as editor, the journal was first published in 1996. It "focuses on the work environment, the individual, and the work-family interface." While published by the American Psychological Association, the journal has also become associated with the Society for Occupational Health Psychology, and membership in the Society brings an automatic subscription.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“Anything in history or nature that can be described as changing steadily can be seen as heading toward catastrophe.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
“Postmodernism is, almost by definition, a transitional cusp of social, cultural, economic and ideological history when modernism’s high-minded principles and preoccupations have ceased to function, but before they have been replaced with a totally new system of values. It represents a moment of suspension before the batteries are recharged for the new millennium, an acknowledgment that preceding the future is a strange and hybrid interregnum that might be called the last gasp of the past.”
—Gilbert Adair, British author, critic. Sunday Times: Books (London, April 21, 1991)
