In spring 2024, all employees and managers at Stockholm University are offered a series of breakfast seminars focusing on the concept of unhealthy workload. Many factors influence our work environment, both organizational and social. Additionally, our individual conditions, including physical, mental, and social aspects, impact our well-being. Balancing the organization's needs with the individual conditions of employees requires knowledge and competence from both managers and staff.
The purpose of this seminar series is to provide you, as an employee, with knowledge about various factors that can affect your work experience. You will also receive practical tips and tools to help identify what you specifically need to thrive, as well as how we can actively work together to create a healthy work environment.
Concurrently with this seminar series, targeted seminars and training sessions are also offered to all managers at Stockholm University on the same topics but from an employer's perspective. These sessions will explore the responsibilities we have as employers in creating conditions for a positive organizational and social work environment at our workplaces.
>> Seminars and training sessions for managers (in Swedish)
Every month during the spring, a specific theme will be highlighted, and breakfast seminars on that theme will be offered at the end of each month. The seminars are conducted online, and all sessions for employees are available in both Swedish and English.
