Project

Work ability in the everyday life of an entrepreneur in the social and health care sector – ways to manage stress factors

We develop individual solutions for managing stress factors in the work of social and health care entrepreneurs. As an entrepreneur, you have the opportunity to give and receive support from another entrepreneur. In North Ostrobothnia, we will create a network to support social and health care entrepreneurs. New forms of co-operation are needed in small companies that, unlike larger workplaces, have no support for work ability and coping. We train network operators to promote the work ability and health of entrepreneurs and manage stress factors in work. We welcome entrepreneurs in the care, well-being and rehabilitation sectors and operators in organizations, occupational health care and business counselling to join us. The activities are free of charge for the participants.
