The aim of the project is to provide young workers' representatives with a platform where they can address mental health challenges in the digital world of work and actively contribute towards shaping healthy working conditions. The project aims to raise awareness of the effects of permanent availability, the blurring of boundaries between work and private life, and social isolation, especially when working from home.
Participants will exchange experiences, present successful strategies from their countries and organisations, and jointly develop options for action. The focus will be on how mental health can be better protected in the workplace – individually, at company level and politically.
There will be a particular focus on giving young people entering the labour market a voice and bringing their perspectives into the social dialogue. How can rules for availability be designed? What support do young workers need in flexible working models? And how can mental health be firmly established as an integral part of modern working culture?
