'Work and Well-Being' Workshop - 17th November 2009

Work and well-being has become a central theme adopted by both policy makers and researchers that offers great potential to improve working lives.

HSL is organising and hosting a workshop for experts from 10 European health and safety institutes within the PEROSH group to present and discuss broad issues and current work in relation to health, work and well-being. In addition, drivers for well-being research and interventions will be discussed and in particular how these differ between institutes and nations. Based on consideration of what has already been achieved and what is in progress, delegates will seek to identify common needs for not only improving well-being, but also preventing ill-health, enabling those with ill-health to stay at work, and for rehabilitating people who are not at work following ill-health or injury
