Ontzettend veel van je werk houden, maar tegelijkertijd eraan onderdoor gaan: met die paradox hebben veel professionals in de creatieve sector te maken. Hoogleraar Mediastudies @markdeuze.bsky.social roept op: Mediamakers, verenig u voor goed en gezond werk in de media! www.uva.nl/shared-conte...

'Het werk dat mensen in creatieve beroepen blij maakt, laat ze ook ziek op de bank belanden’

Werken in de creatieve sector klinkt voor velen als een droom, maar heeft ook een schaduwzijde. Mensen in creatieve beroepen hebben disproportioneel vaak last van stress, burn-outs en depressieve klachten, blijkt uit onderzoek van hoogleraar Mediastudies Mark Deuze. In zijn recent verschenen boek 'Well-being and Creative Careers – What Makes You Happy Can Also Make You Sick' onderzoekt hij hoe dat komt – en wat eraan te doen is.
