Abstract
As a new arena for practice, industrial social work presents many advantages in translating the objectives and purpose of the profession into specific activities and programs. Because the workplace provides access to such an enormous population, social workers in labor and industrial settings are afforded almost unlimited opportunities—a source of strain as well as strength. This article outlines these opportunities as well as the particular issues faced by social workers in the workplace.
