On this site we have gathered information
concerning social work environment.
Stress, mobbing, and violence is one of the NRCWE’s strategic work
environment areas. The research deals with areas such as stress, mobbing
and violence which e.g. include mental health problems, decreased
well-being, depression and mental attrition – consequences which can lead
to sickness absence and premature retirement from the labour market. An
important goal is to operationalise the elements of the concept
“psychosocial work environment” and the interaction between working
conditions, lifestyle and family life.
The NRCWE will continue developing practical tools to be used by companies
and consultants, but also to develop and test practical company-based
solutions. The psychosocial work environment is part of the Government’s
2010 work environment programme.

environment.
