项目摘要

Well-being is a topic of increasing interest to individuals, organisations and societies. Conceptually at its broadest level it combines 'feeling good' with 'effective functioning'. This has prompted attention to a variety of facets, from macro level (e.g. OECD's focus on economic indicators of well-being such as GDP and the current UK Government's creation of a 'national well-being index') to concerns over individual physical, mental, spiritual and emotional well-being. This seminar series will focus on a key aspect of well-being, that of well-being in the workplace, often termed employee well-being. A plethora of research evidence indicates that poor well-being at work can lead to adverse physical and mental health consequences for individuals and negative organisational outcomes such as increased sickness absence and reduced productivity of workers. In particular, stress and mental health issues are now cited as the primary cause of long-term absence from work. As such, this seminar series will focus predominantly on psychological well-being, aiming to add insight and understanding into the ways employee mental health and well-being can be managed and sustained.The increase in interest in employee well-being sits within the context of changes to working lives and experiences. Globalisation, work intensification and increased job insecurity are all indicative of 21st century work. Furthermore, we are changing how we work (i.e. the increased use of mobile technologies and less face to face interaction), where we work (an increase in home or mobile working and an increase in the geographical mobility of workers), when we work (e.g. flexible working regulations and work life balance issues) and who works. For example, there are now more female workers, more international workers and more older workers in the UK. In addition, the economic downturn has also contributed to the challenges in managing well-being at work, as employers, HR managers and occupational health professionals are being expected to deliver more, in less time but with fewer resources. Given the significance of the topic, a seminar series which highlights the importance of sustaining employee well-being is justified and timely. The series aims to provide greater understanding of the nature of well-being, how well-being can be measured and how it can be fostered. In doing so, awareness will be raised of ways in which employee well-being can be managed in a holistic and sustainable way. The series will draw upon international, sector and life stage differences to consider ways in which the needs of employees can be balanced with organisational performance. It will also bring together non-academic stakeholders from diverse backgrounds with both early career and established academic stakeholders from a range of disciplines, thereby offering opportunities to bridge the gap between academic research and organisational practice, as well as facilitating research capacity building.Eight of the one-day seminars will each focus on distinct, but inter-related, aspects of sustainability of employee well-being. The themes will encompass: reconsidering the nature of well-being; reviewing current opportunities and challenges in sustaining employee well-being; exploring mechanisms for sustaining well-being in the workplace; learning from international approaches; revisiting ways in which well-being is measured and ways in which workplace interventions are monitored and evaluated; and thinking about challenges associated with well-being extending across a longer working life. The final seminar will take the form of a one day mini conference, the purpose of which will be to utilise more formally the inter-relations between the previous seminar sessions by inviting delegates to reflect on the discussions from the previous seminars and to work together to forge new partnerships to take the employee well-being agenda forward.
幸福是个人、组织和社会越来越感兴趣的话题。从概念上讲,在最广泛的层面上,它将“感觉良好”与“有效运作”结合起来。这促使人们关注各个方面,从宏观层面(例如经合组织注重国内生产总值等福祉的经济指标,以及目前英国政府创建的“国民福祉指数”)到对个人身体、心理、精神和情感福祉的关注。本系列研讨会将重点关注幸福的一个关键方面,即工作场所的幸福,通常称为员工幸福。大量的研究证据表明,工作中的幸福感不佳可能导致个人身心健康的不良后果,以及负面的组织结果,如病假增加和工人生产力降低。特别是,压力和心理健康问题现在被认为是长期缺勤的主要原因。因此,该系列研讨会将主要关注心理健康,旨在增加对员工心理健康和幸福的管理和维持方式的洞察和理解。员工对员工幸福感的兴趣增加是在工作生活和经历变化的背景下进行的。全球化、工作密集化和工作不安全感的增加都是21世纪工作的标志。此外,我们正在改变我们的工作方式(即更多地使用移动的技术,减少面对面的互动),我们的工作地点(增加在家或移动的工作,增加工人的地理流动性),我们的工作时间(例如灵活的工作规定和工作生活平衡问题)以及谁工作。例如,英国现在有更多的女性工人、更多的国际工人和更多的老年工人。此外,经济衰退也加剧了在管理工作中的福祉方面的挑战,因为雇主、人力资源管理人员和职业健康专业人员被期望在更短的时间内以更少的资源提供更多的服务。鉴于这一主题的重要性,一系列强调维持员工福祉重要性的研讨会是合理和及时的。该系列旨在更好地了解福祉的性质、如何衡量福祉以及如何促进福祉。通过这样做,将提高人们对以全面和可持续的方式管理员工福祉的方式的认识。该系列将借鉴国际,部门和生活阶段的差异,考虑如何使员工的需求与组织绩效保持平衡。研讨会亦将汇聚来自不同背景的非学术界人士,包括来自不同学科的早期职业人士及学术界人士,借此提供机会弥合学术研究与组织实践之间的差距,并促进研究能力建设。为期一天的研讨会中,有八个研讨会将分别聚焦于员工福祉可持续发展的不同但又相互关联的方面。主题将包括:重新考虑福祉的性质;审查当前在维持雇员福祉方面的机遇和挑战;探索维持工作场所福祉的机制;学习国际做法;重新审视衡量福祉的方法以及监测和评价工作场所干预措施的方法;思考与较长工作寿命的福祉相关的挑战。最后的研讨会将采取为期一天的小型会议的形式,其目的是通过邀请代表们反思以前研讨会的讨论,并共同努力建立新的伙伴关系,以更正式地利用以前研讨会之间的相互关系,以推进员工福利议程。
