NIVA Nordic Tour 2011: Mental helse, sykefravær og gjeninntreden i arbeidslivet
Mentale helseproblemer står for en betydelig del av det totale sykefravær i arbeidslivet, og er ellers forbundet med store sosiale problemer og konsekvenser. Kan vi forbedre mulighetene for gjeninntreden i arbeidslivet for medarbeidere med mentale helseproblemer? NIVA Nordic Tour arrangeres i år på STAMI. På dette seminaret vil en rekke forskere belyse problemstillinger rundt psykisk helse og gjeninntreden til arbeidslivet ut fra ulike pespektiver.
