Abstract

Changing demands made by the workplace may be associated with psychomental and socioemotional stresses. Underlying reasons involve work organization and specific work content, as also social relationships at the workplace, the remuneration situation, and the risks related to the occupational biography of the individual. Changes in the workplace-related risks necessitate further investigations into the work and performance process relevant to the individual case.
