HS - Workload and Overwork

Pre-requisites: Health and Safety - An Introduction

Apr 23, 2026 (1:00pm-4:00pm (Eastern))

As employers pull back resources, they expect workers to do more with less. This module will examine workload, the cause and effects of overwork, and strategies to overcome the ever increasing workload that is damaging not just our health at work, but the relationship we have outside of work. NOTE: Please bring your binder and Health and Safety Committee Resource Kit.
