Occupational Stress

The world of work is constantly evolving, driven by the economy and the job market. Today, we are keenly aware of the relationship employees have with their work on a daily basis. Indeed, the experience of work and the relationship it creates are quite distinct realities. From a systemic perspective, the variety and complexity of environments, their interactions and their effects on individuals, are both at the origin of stress reactions and offer a repertoire of resources that enable the implementation of adjustment modalities. Our disciplinary approach in psychology places great emphasis on relationships and interactions with the social environment. The social environment provides new resources and modes of regulation, but it is also a place where the impact of persistent environmental stressors can be felt. Thus, the problem of open space remains a constant preoccupation for employees: assessing one's work environment or workspace is necessary in the light of current changes.
