From Reflection to Action: Enhancing Workplace Well-Being Through Digital Solutions

扫码查看
Despite the widely acknowledged importance of well-being, our well-being can regularly be under pressure from external sources. Work is often attributed as a source of stress and dissatisfaction, so, unsurprisingly, extensive efforts are made to measure and improve our well-being in this context This paper examines opportunities to better design supportive digital solutions through two complementary studies. In the first study, we present a longitudinal assessment of a well-being-focused self-report application deployed in two organizations. Through an analysis of one year of application usage across 219 users, we find both established and novel patterns of application usage and well-being evaluation. While prior work has highlighted substantial dropout rates and daily well-being fluctuations that peak in the morning and early evening, our results highlight that substantial breaks in usage are common, suggesting that users choose to engage with well-being applications mainly when they need them. In the second study, we expand on the topic of well-being reflection at work and the use of technology for this purpose. Through a survey involving 100 participants, we identify current practices in increasing well-being at work, obstacles to sharing and discussing mental well-being states, opportunities for digital well-being solutions and reflections on transparency and communication. Our combined results highlight opportunities for HCI research and practice to address the ongoing challenges of maintaining well-being in today's work environments.
