Resumo(s)

Our work life is changing rapidly. Globalization is ramping up competition, and digitalization is transforming all but the simplest manual labor into knowledge work. These changes don’t come without a price – and it seems that the price is paid in an increase of stress and burnout. The cost of work-related stress in Europe was estimated to be around 200 billion annually and, in the USA, job stress alone is estimated to cost companies approximately 300 billion dollars a year. To face the high costs, the key to success requires tackling the work stress-related issues, first, in an individual level. This project aims to develop novel stress detection solutions for workplaces, which will help to manage and reduce stress in the work context and build safe, positive, and productive work environments. Existing technologies for stress detection have been developed in relatively short-term studies and are not practical and/or mature enough for continuous, real-life usage. To overcome these shortcomings, we will develop novel solutions to detect workplace problems and stress, convenient for long-term real-life use. Pilots in real workplaces will be conducted to achieve project goals and to evaluate developed solutions. Ultimately, our goal is to support and mitigate ongoing transformation, helping individuals flourish and companies thrive, paving the way for healthier workplaces where people throw up their arms, not in frustration or anger but inspiration and excitement.
