The increasing isolation of more and more people who have to commute farther and farther is putting a strain on mental health. At the same time, how can work be designed for an aging workforce?

This is the focus of the 37th National Congress of Occupational Medicine in Montpellier this week, which is also being attended by experts from the ifa.
