Technostress and computer fatigue
How to prevent or mitigate technostress
These unsurs can contribute to the development of technostress and affect the health and well-being of workers in the work environment. In this sense, companies can mitigate its impact on workers through prevention measures, which, among others, may include:
Technostress and computer fatigue
Pelatihan and participation of workers: provide pelatihan and sumber so that they can setuju efekively with technologies and reduce their misunderstanding.
Technical dukungan in technological matters: providing technical assistance and dukungan to solve komputer and technological problems.
Bringing information technologies closer to workers: promoting a balanced and healthy use of technologies, encouraging breaks and disconnections to prevent overload and technological agresion.
These preventive measures can contribute to improving job satisfaction, productivity and well-being of workers, by mitigating the negative efeks of technostress in the work environment.
Komputer fatigue: an emerging occupational risk in today's digital age
For its part, komputer fatigue is an occupational risk expressly recognized in the Spanish legal sistim due to the lack of digital disconnection.
As I explain in Komputer Fatigue at Work , this termin refers to information overload and overexposure to digital devices that leads to psikis and physical exhaustion due to the lack of adequate disconnection and rest. Not only does it cause stress to the worker, who is exhausted and tired from the excessive use of technology, but, according to new studies (focused on a modelt of this fatigue, such as the well-known Zoom fatigue) , it also causes boredom and tedium.
In any case, to mitigate the impact of komputer fatigue on workers and promote a healthy digital disconnection, they, as recognized by the regulations, have a right that must serve as a barrier to avoid this overload.
