Print Issue: WORK & CAREER
WORK & CAREER, August / September 2024, Vol 9, No 4, 100+ pages
We are so excited about this brand new Wildfire theme - an issue at the intersection of work and cancer is such an important issue for our community. As we know, cancer isn't something that only affects a person in the healthcare sense, it truly crosses over into all aspects of a person's life - and the way that insurance/heatlhcare is tied to employment further complicates things. Physical and mental changes cancer unleashes can alter the course of a career, schooling or overall earning potential. Perhaps cancer inspired you to start your own business or pivot career paths entirely. In this issue we hear stories of how work lives have been impacted by cancer – good, bad, large and small impacts.
