On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
In this seminar we will examine the relationship between working time and wellbeing from both a macro and micro level perspective. We will begin by exploring the relationship between working hours and life expectancy, paying particular attention to how inequality moderates the results of this relationship. Then we will delve into the results of our recent study which examines the health implications of working time reduction among 3000 employees who participated in the 4 Day Week Global Trials.
