Ghent University-Liantis Chair: well-being at work
Well-being at work is, of course, a top priority. Through this chair, Liantis wants to stimulate research on this topic in order to optimise their services.
Objectives
Within this chair, research will focus on well-being at work, and all the factors that are related to well-being such as: safety, risk management, ergonomics, job requirements, job content, vertical and horizontal social capital, quality of management, psychological safety,... The research will also investigate how well-being can evolve over time depending on how these factors are influenced.
The chair is unique thanks to its holistic approach to well-being at work.
To this end, it is necessary not only to take into account all factors that can impact well-being but also, alongside initial ‘cross-sectional’ research, to conduct longitudinal research to monitor the effect of changes. The research is thus coupled with a well-being intervention that Liantis will run in a representative sample of businesses, involving business leaders, managers, and employees.
