We kindly invite interested researchers, practitioners, and policy makers to join the public part of the EAWOP Small Group Meeting “Challenges in Work Stress” via Zoom. Friday, 13 September 2024 (CEST, UTC+02:00)
Keynote speaker: Prof. Dr. Alexandra Michel is the Scientific Head of Division 1: Changing Working World at the Federal Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (BAuA), Dortmund, Germany, and an Extraordinary Professor that the Psychology Institute, Heidelberg University, Heidelberg, Germany. Her invited keynote presentation is titled "Addressing the challenge of flexible work designs: Interventions transfer strategies for policy and practice".
Keynote abstract: Flexible work designs provide a colorful mix of work at the office, at home, or other places. In line with assumptions concerning the impact of challenge stressors, flexible working can have ambivalent effects. This talk gives an overview about the ambivalent effects of flexible work designs. There will also be a specific focus on policy impact and transfer strategies to reduce negative effects and promote positive effects of flexible work designs. Thereby, the Flex Ability intervention approaches (https://www.baua.de/EN/Service/Publications/Guidance/A110-2) and empirical evidence of their effectiveness will be presented aiming to enable workers and teams to organize their flexible work in a resourceful and healthy way. The keynote presentation will be followed by a coffee break and a debate on implications for policy, practice, and research. The panel debate will be moderated by Sabine Bergner (University of Graz). Barbara Huber (AUVA) and Paul Jiménez (B?P & University of Graz) will discuss on site and Sonia Nawrocka (European Trade Union Institute) and Agnès Parent-Thirion (Eurofound) will join in online.

Small Group Meetings – Call for proposals – Deadline September 15th
EAWOP’s mission is to promote and support the development of Work and Organizational Psychology in Europe. One obvious way to do this is to get work and organizational psychologists from across Europe together to explore mutual interest and build collaborative networks.
With this purpose in mind, EAWOP has been funding regularly Small Group Meetings (SGM), which are small-scale research or practice-oriented conferences for 20-25 participants with an international group of delegates that aim to stimulate contact between EAWOP members, and to develop cross-national collaborative networks within Europe. As part of our ongoing commitment to fostering meaningful connections and driving innovation, we are excited to introduce a new series of strategic collaboration meetings aimed at bringing together leaders and influencers from various associations and groups of interest in Psychology to forge powerful partnerships and collaborative initiatives in the field of work and organizational Psychology
The EAWOP Executive Committee (EC) is happy to announce the opening of a new call for SGM proposals. It is proposed to support up to three Thematic Small Group Meetings and one Strategic Small group meeting.
The EC is seeking proposals for intensive, multi-day SGMs with an international range of delegates in which members of EAWOP play an active part. EAWOP members interested in organizing a SGM are invited to submit a proposal to the EAWOP EC by the deadline on September 15th, 2024Please check the conditions and submission guidelines at?https://eawop.org/calls
