Based on a recent study, knowledge workers often have too much work and their work involves tasks that are inappropriate for the job description.🔍
💡Essentialization helps limit work and reduce stress.

This interesting project produces new information on how multi-location work, i.e. in-office, hybrid and remote work, affects employees’ well-being at work, social resources and work activities 🎯
Choice matters in remote work – an internally motivated employee is also a productive one.
🔹 Too little remote work → higher quitting intentions
🔹 Too much remote work → weaker community & performance

Work life is becoming fragmented and more individual. Jobs come from gigs, grants and platforms — and work ability is judged by how it feels.
How can we ensure fair support in a changing work life?

As part of this partnership, the Finnish Institute of Occupational Health is launching the two-year “Skills for Working Life - Upper secondary students as researchers and jobseekers” research project
The study investigates what kind of support young adults need to develop into active participants in work life with high self-esteem 🎯
🔍Rapidly changing work life creates uncertainty among young people.
A new project engages upper secondary students as co-researchers to explore how job search coaching and processing work life fears can promote work life preparedness.

📲 New technologies and digital work tools might cause technostress. Typical simultaneous stressors are calls and chats.
Doing things differently is restorative. In the summer, it's worth breaking away from routines and information systems. 💛

Working remotely can increase well-being and reduce workload, but it does not benefit everyone equally e.g. the experiences of supervisors and employees may differ
This interesting study provides new information on why remote work can weaken trust and the sense of community, and the roles and life situations where it can support well-being
#wellbeing #mentalhealth | @FIOH
Study: The benefits of remote work are not equally distributed.
Independent work gets easier, but trust and community may suffer. Managers benefit less than employees.
