dr. vicki kristman: distinguished researcher talk - "what can employers do to keep employees healthy? build a hockey team: eight important workplace factors impacting employee health and disability"

event date: 
thursday, february 29, 2024 - 2:00pm to 3:00pm est
event location: 
cases atrium, 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜

about the event

employee physical and mental health is vital for workplace engagement and productivity. unfortunately, unhealthy work environments are prevalent today. offering wellness programs or wellness days are not the drivers of employee health in the workplace. instead, improving the overall work environment is a far more effective way to keep employees healthy. i will describe eight workplace factors that i believe are the most important in defining a healthy work environment. i will use the hockey team as a metaphor for how employers can address these factors. i will close the presentation by briefly describing a current study testing my beliefs in northwestern ontario workplaces.

dr. scott hamilton: distinguished researcher talk - "bearing witness to tragedy: the search for unmarked graves at indian residential schools"

event date: 
tuesday, february 27, 2024 - 11:00am to 12:00pm est
event location: 
cases atrium, 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜

about the event

canadian indian residential schools (irs) operated for about 160 years, with at least 4,130 recorded deaths and the fate of thousands more children remaining unknown. since the 2021 kamloops irs investigations, many indigenous nations have initiated searches for the unmarked graves of these children. this process includes collecting survivor testimony, archival investigation and ground searches that rely heavily on remote sensing methodologies. this work is mindful of the risk of exacerbating intergenerational trauma, the practical limits of the methods employed, and the necessity for indigenous sovereignty over results. it also involves building local capacity and integrating outside technical expertise when needed. academics involved in these activities must view it as ‘research service’ that is unlikely to lead to conventional publication. this complexity is explored with examples from ongoing investigations.
