Webinar: Worker Well-being during COVID

Worker Well-being during COVID: Return to the Workplace
Tuesday, August 17, 2–3 pm ET

Prior to 2020, workplace well-being was already an area of growing interest for workers, employers, researchers, and public policymakers. The pandemic has served as a catalyst, sparking more urgent conversations and attention to worker well-being. In light of this renewed interest, we invite you to the second of two seminars focused on employee well-being and happiness. Speakers will discuss the factors affecting the mental and physical health of employees who are now starting to return to their workplaces.

Erin Driver-Linn, Dean for Education at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, will give welcome remarks, and John Quelch, Dean of Miami Business School, will moderate the discussion. Speakers include Pamela Hymel (Chief Medical Officer, Walt Disney Parks and Resorts), Glorian Sorensen (Director of the Center for Work, Health and Wellbeing) and Vish Viswanath (Co-Director of the Lee Kum Sheung Center for Health and Happiness).
