What is well-being? Is it health? Is it happiness? Both are correct. The textbook approach tells us that well-being is multidimensional because it is the interaction of different elements of health: physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual as well as our environment and our culture. Is the workplace linked to our wellbeing? Yes, it is. What we want to know is how the linkages are made, what affects what.
Think of
well-being as a chain with links. Each link represents an element of health or environment or culture that interacts with another element and so on. The interaction of these links can be strong like a metallic chain or weak like paper decorations. We can call this the sum effect of our
well-being which will either improve or diminish our happiness, outlook, social interaction and health.
How do you describe your well-being as an air traffic controller?
