Summary
Safety & Health Improvement Program (SHIP) is a 1-hour online training designed by occupational health psychology scientists. The training helps organizations promote employee health, safety, and work-life integration by increasing supervisor support and team effectiveness.
Technology Overview
Work-life conflicts can seriously affect workers' safety and wellbeing. They can also have an organizational impact. Research shows that those workers have work-life conflicts, have increased work stress and burnout, physical and mental health problems and increased intentions to quit their jobs. They have decreased family, marital and job satisfaction, decreased commitment to the organization and job performance.

-
Recognize the pressures and demands that personal/family responsibilities can have
