简要总结
Research shows that the workplace is an important arena where much can be done to promote a sustainable working life while maintaining health. However, there is a lack of knowledge that is specific to dental care with regard to managers' and employees' perceptions of the work environment, systematic work environment management and work adaptations, as well as what measures in the workplace are necessary to create a health-promoting and sustainable work environment. There is also a lack of knowledge regarding what support employees and managers need in the systematic work environment management and what individual workplace adaptations that can work within dental care organizations.
详细描述
There is a lack of information about how systematic work environment management works in dental care. This includes the dental staff's and management's experience of how and how well systematic health-promoting work environment management is applied, what individual workplace adaptations are used, what support they lack and what they think is good regarding the work environment management. The dental work environment includes dentists, dental hygienists and dental nurses. Perceptions of the work environment and work-related interventions are poorly studied.
Overall aim: Based on a health-promoting basis, the research project aims to study conditions in the work environment in dental care and what support is needed in the systematic work environment management.
Sub-study one is a quantitative cross-sectional study and sub-study two is a qualitative interview study.
Sub-study 1
Aim, sub-study 1: The aim is to investigate how employees and managers in dental care perceive their work environment, support in the organization, safety at work and the need for work environment measures and work adaptations. Furthermore, the aim is to map the employees' self-rated health. The study also aims to describe how managers perceive opportunities to actively work with systematic work environment management in dental care.
