With an investment of around €3.2 million, the VUB will have the opportunity over the next five years to investigate one of today’s major societal challenges: mental wellbeing in the workplace. The Helios Chair brings together VUB researchers from different disciplines who will collaborate with Belgian organisations on evidence-based prevention strategies. According to co-chairs Professors Christophe Vanroelen and Joeri Hofmans, the key lies not only in supporting employees who are already struggling, but above all in organising work in a healthier way.
