Beyond mindfulness – Exploring structural opportunities for change in the workplace — Jan 18 and Feb 8

In a two-part HR learning series taking place Jan 18 and Feb 8 at UFV Abbotsford, participants will learn about different approaches to supporting and maintaining health and ‘resilience’ in the workplace. A specific focus will be on moving beyond individualized understandings of health and resiliency towards examining how health and resiliency in the workplace is socially organized. In doing so, participants will develop a ‘structural competency’ lens to issues in the workplace.

Dr. Mike Corman facilitates. Corman is an associate professor (Sociology) at UFV and a medical sociologist by training. His research has appeared in numerous peer-reviewed publications, including his book, Paramedics on and off the streets: Emergency medical services in the age of technological governance.
