THE IDEAL WORKPLACE ATMOSPHERE. Training system for managers and workers to generate the most productive and healthy working environment

Description

Many full-time employees spend more of their waking hours with co-workers than they do with their spouses and families, especially in team environments. It is unavoidable for employees to eventually develop personal relationships among themselves in addition to their formal co-worker relationships. Working with people you like to spend your time has a strong influence for the wellness in the workplace, health, labor environment and, of course and in a mid-long term, productivity, which at the end reinforces the stability of jobs, and above all willingness to learn and improve basic skills and competences. Who is responsible of generating that atmosphere? Obviously, it is a work in several directions. Relationships between employees and management are of substantial value in any workplace. Human relations are the process of training employees, addressing their needs, fostering a workplace culture and resolving conflicts between different employees or between employees and management. Understanding some of the ways that human relations can impact the costs, competitiveness and long-term economic sustainability of a business helps to underscore their importance.Thus, this task affects the company in a 360 degrees analysis, and all the actors in the working process are implied in the achievement of the desired environment, from the leaders, managers and directors to the basic workers. Thus, all of them should be aware of their possibilities to build a positive and creative atmosphere, each one from his/her particular point of view.Taking these facts into account, TIWA aims at helping European companies, SME, entrepreneurs, leaders, managers and workers in general to generate a healthy working environment, creating a framework of fellowship and human relationships between the different levels of the company. This will enable productivity, health in the workplace with the reduction of illnesses and injuries and, then, of absenteeism. As a results TIWA promotes developing basic skills and key competences, especially of low-skilled employees. TIWA wants to provide high-quality learning opportunity for employees to be better co-workers, but also wants to show managers the lines to follow in order to create the best atmosphere in their companies.The project consortium is composed of six organisations from five different EU countries (SL, BG, ES, IR and CZ) and shows cooperation between new and old European Member States. A comprehensive partnership has been established, consisting of a solid group of training companies with long experience in the implementation of in company programs, some of them with a solid career in European projects (such as our coordinator, Ljudska Univerza Velenje, Defoin, Impro Institute or Bulgaria Training) and some newcomers, such as I&F (which is building a recent but solid international career) or INDEPCIE, one of our Spanish partners which will have its first experience in Erasmus+ projects.To achieve the objectives of the project three Intellectual Outputs will be developed, tested and multiplied: the ‘IDEAL LEADERS’ (O1) is a training system for managers in building a healthy company culture, which will be supplemented by ‘WORKING WITH A SMILE’ (O2), a best practice case study. These will be the umbrella for 'ME, THE IDEAL WORKMATE’ (O3), a good feelings kit with training tools for employees, developing strategies to be generators od a positive working environment. The online system will also feature a platform for interactions between learners, trainers and trainees, and other stakeholders. All outputs produced will be freely accessible for the public within and beyond the project’s lifetime.TIWA is likely to have sustainable direct impacts within and beyond the project lifetime on three target groups: 1) entrepreneurs and managers, 2) employees 3) Companies and organisations active in the field of training, adult education and advisory services.By creating training tools for improving skills and key competences of trainers, managers and employees, the consortium expects to achieve the overall objective of the project: (a) evaluate the effectiveness of creating a friendly working atmosphere, and (b) assess the effectiveness of building solid and healthy human relationships in the workplace. The ultimate goal is to improve the culture company and raise awareness of its importance in the health and productivity of a company.
