During this webinar, we are going to explore the dynamics of work-related stress and well-being among administrative staff in academic settings. First and foremost, we will examine key concepts related to occupational stress, with particular attention to the balance between job demands and the job and personal resources that are typically available within university contexts.
Building on this framework, we will consider how these demands and resources manifest in academic workplaces, and how individual and organizational factors can help regulate and mitigate their impact. In this context, we will also introduce practical coping strategies, highlighting how these elements interact in employees’ everyday work experience.
