Abstract

Even though work pressure and work intensification are the main impacts on health in today’s world of work, a reduction of those impacts is rarely considered in the context of occupational health and safety. At the same time, however, risk assessments have been developed to reduce those psychomental risks typical of a changing world of work and business. Because of the fact that just few enterprises in Germany take into account psychosocial stress in risk assessments, a lot of potential to reduce psychomental stress is wasted. The causes presented in this article are manifold. They range from a taboo of making public individually experienced mental workload to half-heartedly conducted risk assessments and a lack of practical consequences.
