It will deliver communication messages throughout the day, emphasizing that transforming workplace mental health requires investment at all levels: from individual resilience and peer support, to employer practices and workplace policies, and societal efforts to reduce stigma and reform labour and employment policies.

Event type: | Interactive Workshop / Skill-Building Session |
Event format: | In-person |
Description: | The speech therapist plays a key role in maintaining and restoring communication and oral-functional abilities in individuals with various speech, voice, and swallowing disorders. These difficulties often affect not only physical functioning but also an individual's mental health and social participation, ultimately leading to a decreased quality of life.
Quality of life is closely linked to a sense of autonomy, self-confidence, and active involvement in social life. With the intervention of a speech therapist, individuals with speech, voice, or swallowing disorders can regain their ability to express themselves, eat safely, and engage socially. This contributes to improved emotional well-being, enhanced self-esteem, and a more fulfilling daily life. |

Description: | Effect of Smartphone Usage on Neck Pain. Neck pain is a growing problem in society, affecting people of all ages, but especially young adults, due to prolonged computer/phone use, desk work, poor posture, stress and reduced physical activity. Recent studies have shown an association between increased mobile phones use and an increase in the incidence of neck pain. Prolonged use of electronic devices, exceeding three hours per day, is a significant risk factor. Timely assessment and prevention of this condition will significantly improve people's condition and lifestyle. |
