The focus of this seminar is on accidents and illnesses in the workplace due to work activity. What happens when employees can no longer perform their work? How can we support the employees to find their way back into the work process? What should be considered - be it in interdisciplinary cooperation, but also in terms of economic figures? At the end of the semester we will take a detour into the prevention of accidents and illnesses at work. 

The topic will be dealt with both theoretically and practically. The students will work out an intervention and if possible carry it out on site.

EVALUATION

The evaluation of the seminar takes place in two steps with the offer of a third evaluation possibility. First, the oral presentation (30 minutes) is evaluated as group work (50% of final grade). Secondly, the personal contribution of the prepared intervention is evaluated (50% of final grade). Then, there is the possibility to take a voluntary MC-exam (45 minutes duration, 15 questions) during the examination session. People who get more than 70% of the answers correct will receive a bonus.

After completing the seminar Back2work?! Insights into occupational rehabilitation psychology…

• …participants know the health situation of the Swiss working population and the most important developments of the last 10 years
• …participants understand the development of mental and physical illnesses caused by work activities and can distinguish between acute and chronic complaints
• …participants know the triggering and maintaining working conditions for burnout and sleep disorders, musculoskeletal problems, and are able to quantify the benefits of workplace prevention measures (e.g. return on investment)
• …participants have dealt with the legal situation and labor law and know the most important basics
• …participants know possibilities and interdisciplinary therapy approaches to support the return to work in different stages of illness
• …participants will be able to assess operational health management approaches and plan independently

The seminar will be organized in a hybrid form with as much teaching in presence as possible. Activities will be organized over Moodle and participants will have access to Moodle and the information and literature stored there from September 12th. Podcasts and life streaming are offered if necessary. However, active participation on site during the implementation of the interventions is desirable and expected.

The literature list and selected articles are available on Moodle
