In a post-pandemic context in which a clear increase in mental health problems has been observed, the European project H-WORK has developed a platform that identifies the disadvantages that exist in the work environment to face this challenge and allows organisations to assess psychosocial risks effectively through different tools. The consortium, coordinated by the Alma Mater Studiorum- Università di Bologna, has held a meeting in Valencia, with the participation of researchers from the WANT Team of the Universitat Jaume I of Castelló, which is a partner of the project.

The project "H-WORK: Multilevel interventions to promote mental health and well-being in SMEs and Public Organisations", funded by the H2020 programme of the European Union, has resulted in an interactive and easily accessible platform to help companies to implement effective measures in the field of mental health. It incorporates tools that allow benchmarking with other companies, studying the situation of the organisation or calculating economically the money that could be saved by implementing actions in this field.  
  
In the implementation phase of this tool, which also includes a roadmap with different steps to improve mental health within organisations, public, academic and governmental organisations and SMEs from five European countries have participated: Italy, Spain, the Netherlands, Germany and the Czech Republic. In the opinion of María José Gisbert, from Valora Prevención, the project "comes at a time when organisations themselves are changing the focus of what they understood until now as wellbeing to prioritise the mental health of staff and guarantee quality of life".

The WANT Psychosocial Prevention and Healthy Organisations group of the Universitat Jaume I of Castellón is part of this project together with Valora Prevención and academic entities from Germany, the United Kingdom, Italy, Sweden, Holland, Norway, Belgium and the Czech Republic. The meeting held in Valencia last week was attended by the director of the WANT Team, Marisa Salanova, Professor of Social Psychology, and the researchers Mabel San Román and Angela Veng Mei Leong.

The H-WORK project, which will end in the last quarter of the year, has demonstrated the importance of international collaboration to address mental health problems in the workplace. The WANT research group and the other members of the consortium have contributed to creating a valuable tool that can be used by companies across Europe to improve the mental health of their employees and ultimately increase the productivity and economic well-being of the organisation.
