The impact of remote work and mediated communication frequency on isolation and psychological distress

2022

A massive shift towards remote work practices has presented many organizations and employees with acute challenges associated with multi-locational work.

This study relies on a three-wave survey among Finnish workers to investigate how remote work practices and the use of information and communication technology (ICT) have impacted perceptions of isolation during the global health pandemic, and whether these relationships have an effect on psychological distress. The findings indicate that facilitating the use of ICTs may he…

"Millasen päivityksen tästä sais?" : elämäjulkaisijuuden kulttuurinen omaksuminen

2015

Yhä useammat meistä napsivat kuvia lapsistaan, lomistaan ja lemmikeistään sosiaaliseen mediaan. Facebook tai oma blogi on avoinna pitkin päivää, ja huomaamme ajattelevamme keskellä elämän tohinaa: ”Millasen päivityksen tästä sais?” Ajatus ei ole edes kovin tietoinen, kun jo alamme sommitella elämän tapahtumia verkossa jaettaviksi mediateksteiksi. Elämäjulkaiseminen on yleistynyt Suomessa 1990-luvun puolivälistä lähtien. Se on kulkenut käsi kädessä internetin laajenemisen ja yhtä helppokäyttöisemmäksi käyvän teknologian kanssa.

The enterprise architecture is applied for the largest county comprising of over 1900 social service and healthcare related information systems. The targ…

Perceived High Involvement Work Practices and Retirement Intentions

2018

Sustainable human resource management (HRM) stresses the importance of maintaining and developing organizations’ human capital for social, ecological and financial reasons.

The study population consisted of older (more than 50 years) nursing professionals who work at a Finnish univer…
