Abstract

In their focal article, Hyland, Lee, and Mills ( 2015 ) discuss several potential areas in which mindfulness interventions may improve work performance. Some of these include creativity and sales performance (Chaskalson,  2011 ; Seligman,  2006 ). We agree that future research should continue to examine the potential benefits of mindfulness and propose an additional domain in which mindfulness interventions may be particularly beneficial: safety performance.
