INTERVENING COLLECTIVELY ON WORK RELATED SUFFERING: BETWEEN SOURCES OF TENSION AND POWER TO ACT OF A SCHOOL HEALTH COMITY
While Quebec school employees’ mental health is at risk, interventions do not seem to be able to reduce the problem. Considering that preventive individual interventions are insufficient to reduce at the source the psychological health problems at work, we present an intervention-research inspired by the clinic of activity that shows that health can be produced by the power to act in a context providing the ability to generate new work life norms. The results show the individual and collective development of the power to act within a Health Committee.
