Managing the daily grind seems even more important in the wake of COVID-19. This research is about how we work and how we unwind.

We aim to enhance the quality of work breaks and recovery after working, whether you're back at work or working from home.

This study involves completing brief surveys over one work day and evening.

We're seeking workers in AEST to participate during August, September and October.

The study is online, and can be completed on your mobile, so it's pretty easy to take part.

Participate and receive feedback about your own strategies! As well as the chance to win a gift card.
