Dr Jen Remnant

Strathclyde Chancellor's Fellow

Work, Employment and Organisation

Personal statement

I have joined Strathclyde Business School as a Chancellor’s Fellow, a position formed to develop high-quality research careers. With my research I seek to address these research topics: (1) subjective experiences of health at work and employee perceptions, (2) heterogeneous stakeholder perspectives and responses to ill-health and disability in the workplace, (3) organisations and health, and (4) historical, cultural and political perspectives, debates and depictions of health in relation to work.
