Science and Technology (ST) will be a good and healthy workplace for all employees. Stress is a common challenge and a shared responsibility, and it is important that everyone makes active efforts to promote well-being and to prevent stress in daily life.

In connection with the follow-up to the 2015/16 WPA, two new leaflets have therefore been prepared for managers and employees at ST. They contain information about stress, inspiration for stress prevention, and offers of stress-prevention activities from AU HR.

The new material consists of:

• Prevention and management of stress
  The leaflet provides a brief introduction to what stress is in zones of comfort, risk and danger, and what employees, colleagues and managers can do to prevent, detect and manage unhealthy stress. It also contains a brief stress test.

• Stress toolbox for managers at ST
  The leaflet provides a summary of Aarhus University’s offers of workshops, feedback and inspiration for managers alone and for managers together with employees.

The leaflets are available in both Danish and English. You can download them from the website as PDF files, and printed versions have been distributed to all departments and centres.
