AM-MENTAL

Algorithmic management at work and Mental Health

Description

What: AM-MENTAL is a longitudinal cohort study representative of working adults in Spain that examines exposure to algorithmic management and its association with mental health and well-being. Why: The cohort was created because algorithmic management is rapidly expanding in the labour market, while its mental health implications are poorly understood and insufficiently addressed in regulation. What for: The purpose is to generate robust evidence on psychosocial risks linked to algorithmic management and identify groups that may be particularly vulnerable. Results are intended to inform policy, regulation, and workplace practices through evidence-based recommendations developed with stakeholder involvement. How: The cohort follows a representative working population over time using repeated survey data, measuring exposure to algorithmic management, working conditions, mental health outcomes, musculoskeletal pain and occupational injuries.
