July 6, 2020

WAEH Webinar – What is the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our people?

Employees working in eyehospitals worldwide increasingly experience work pressure and an imbalance between work and private life. This can lead to an increase in psychological work-related absenteeism. And the absence can manifest itself in burnout complaints and sometimes even depression. Jos Hubers, HR-manager from The Rotterdam Eye Hospital, is running the WAEH project Clinician Burn Out and will  – together with other members of the WAEH – investigate the factors that influence the vitality of people working in eyehospitals worldwide and share lessons learned about interventions. Please share your thoughts about the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on people working in eyehospitals worldwide!

Date: Thursday 9 July 2020
Time: 06:00 AM Pacific Time (US and Canada)
San Francisco morning time! 14.00 London time! 

If you would like to participate, please send an email to: . After registration you will receive a link. If you already have questions? Please feel free to already share them! During the webinar you can ask questions via the chat.

We hope to see and talk to you soon!
