About
Dr. Rebecca J. Guerin is a leading voice in occupational safety and health (OSH), whose research critically examines the evolving landscape of work to protect worker well-being. Her most influential work, "Envisioning the future of work to safeguard the safety, health, and well‐being of the workforce," published in 2020 with 193 citations, provides a foundational perspective from the CDC's National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH). In this landmark paper, Guerin systematically identifies emerging challenges—from technological job displacement and precarious work arrangements to shifts in organizational design—that demand urgent attention from OSH stakeholders. Her contributions have helped shape the national research agenda, bridging the gap between traditional workplace safety and the complex realities of the modern workforce. By highlighting how changes in the nature of work itself create new risks, Guerin has positioned herself as a critical thinker in future-of-work discourse. Her scholarship not only informs policy but also equips researchers and practitioners with a framework to anticipate and mitigate hazards before they become entrenched, making her work essential reading for anyone invested in the safety and health of tomorrow's workers.
