Description

Just as vital as physical health, the impact of mental health on well-being and productivity at work, has long been overlooked and underestimated. However, there has been a shift in recent years, with mental health being increasingly discussed and recognized as a critical issue. 

This growing awareness is precisely why the 17th conference of the European Academy of Occupational Health Psychology (EAHOP), set under the theme “Mental Health at work: From research to policy and practice”, is particularly important and timely. The conference will take place from the 15th to the 17th of June 2026 at the University of Helsinki, Finland. 

This conference will be a great opportunity for OSH experts to discuss, debate and approach the topic of mental health from a multidisciplinary perspective. It will include keynotes from Professor Jari Hakanen and Professor Sabine Sonnentag, poster and oral presentations, as well as several invited and special symposia, including a session providing an international OHP perspective from the International Coordinating Group for Occupational Health Psychology (ICG-OHP).

Xabier Irastorza and Lorenzo Munar, Senior Research Project Managers at EU-OSHA, will present on two topics. Irastorza will discuss ESENER results on psychosocial risks in the workplace, while Munar will highlight the importance of psychosocial factors in return-to-work processes for health and social care workers.

The event will also feature the awards ceremony for the Eusebio Rial-González Innovation & Practice Award.
