Expert forecast on emerging psychosocial risks related to occupational safety and health

This report is in cooperation with TNO Work and Employment and the European Agency for Safety and Health at Work. The expert forecast on emerging psychosocial risks was carried out by means of the Delphi method. The main emerging psychosocial risks revealed were related to new forms of employment contracts and job insecurity, the OSH risks for the ageing workforce, work intensification - high workload and work pressure, high emotional demands at work - including violence and bullying, and poor work-life balance. Literature reviews were used to explore these risks in terms of prevalence, health and safety outcomes, possible preventive measures and need for future research
