It also ascertains whether occupational safety and health (OSH) preventive measures and policies may play a mitigating role in managing risks and reducing the potentially negative impact of technology. In line with the literature and with prior expectations, our analysis reveals that digital technologies enabling the new forms of management are associated to increased psychosocial risks, which in turn can result in work-related stress and other mental health issues. It also confirmed that OSH measures, such as having an action plan to prevent work related stress, help reducing psychosocial risks in the workplace, but do not mitigate the relationship between psychosocial risks and management technologies UR - https://ec.europa.eu/jrc/sites/default/files/jrc125714.pdf UR - https://ec.europa.eu/jrc/en/publication/eur-scientific-and-technical-research-reports/digital-tools-worker-management-and-psycho-social-risks-workplace-evidence-esener-survey ER -
