What does the topic mean?
Our topic “Recognizing misconduct and reacting appropriately” aims to place reliable signals directly in everyday working life so that managers can identify and address structural burnout risks at an early stage. Factors such as the intensity and duration of the workload, low decision-making autonomy for complex tasks and a lack of a sense of community in the working environment lead to employees becoming mentally burnt out, emotionally exhausted and increasingly distanced from their work over a longer period of time. This is precisely where our nudge comes in, by establishing a brief, unobtrusive reminder in the manager’s daily routine and thus sharpening awareness of critical risk signals.
