Announcement: Employee survey on stress in the workplace
In fall 2024, the University of Graz will carry out the legally required "psychosocial risk assessment at the workplace" in accordance with § 4 ASchG. In the risk assessment, mental stress at the workplace is determined and prevented or reduced by defining and implementing suitable measures.
The next anonymous online survey on mental stress and risks in the workplace will start on 4.11.2024. You will receive an invitation and the link to the survey by email on this date.
The Labour Inspectorate will review the implementation of the stress evaluation and check the measures subsequently taken to improve the workplace for each organizational unit. Therefore, please take part in the survey, in which you can provide anonymous information about the stress at your workplace. You can find out more about the survey here: INTRANET
