WINC - Working hours In the Nordic Countries

WINC is a network for researchers from the Nordic countries with interest in research in working hours.

Aim

The aim of WINC is to establish the network for better co-ordinating existing research and cohorts on working hours and health in the Nordic countries. Further on to discuss possibilities for collaboration across countries and cohorts and to develop new high quality research projects, and make jointed applications for funding of research.

Strengthen the impact of Nordic research

In order to form a strong Nordic platform for joint future research and thereby strengthen the impact of Nordic research on working hours, we encourage researchers interested in this research area to sign up.
