From the aspect of health sciences the technology of well-being means taking advantage of new technology to improve and maintain human functioning and health. We examine the opportunities of using new technology to estimate the work load and how it effects \u00a0the person working. The purpose of the study is to find ways to measure workload as well as self-care of individuals.<\/p><p><b>The research group:<\/b><\/p><p>Responsible researcher<\/p><p>Professor Clas-H\u00e5kan Nyg\u00e5rd, clas-hakan.nygard (at) uta.fi, School of Heath Sciences, University of Tampere<\/p><p>PhD students<\/p><p>Reetta Heinonen, reetta.heinonen (at) uta.fi, Psychophysiological loading at work and leisure- time<\/p><p>Reetta Orsila, reetta.orsila (at) stm.fi, Promotion of work well-being with emphasis on occupational safety and health and well-being technologies<\/p><p>Mika Liukkonen, mika.liukkonen (at) uta.fi, Biological age and change of health-related fitness with increased physical exercise.
