Project Updates
We are excited to be partnering with organizations like WorkSafe on a number of new activities including administering “healthy work” surveys to worker groups, developing educational workshops on work stress prevention, and collaborating on developing educational materials for working people.
We are continuing our partnership with university researchers to develop our own Healthy Work Survey. Under the leadership of Dr. BongKyoo Choi, this online tool, targeted to organizations and individuals working in the U.S., will be free to the public, assess exposures to work stressors and the impact of these stressors on health, as well as compare results to a national average.
We are also making progress on developing our intervention toolkit, led by Dr. Paul Landsbergis, which will expand upon the resources currently available in our Healthy Work Tools pages, by providing a database to search by occupation/industry, work stressor and other factors, to provide evidence-based solutions such as organizational intervention case studies targeted at specific working groups.
Additionally, we are expanding our team, most recently with the addition of Dr. Pouran Faghri, an expert in intervention research who will focus on outreach & disseminating our intervention tools.
