About
Dr. Deborah De Moortel is a leading researcher at the intersection of occupational health, public policy, and sustainable work systems. Her work critically examines how macro-level transformations—including digitalization, the green transition, and demographic shifts—reshape workplace health and well-being. She is best known for spearheading interdisciplinary frameworks that bridge labor economics, organizational psychology, and public health, as exemplified by her role in the Horizon-Europe cluster WISEWORK-C. This initiative integrates five major projects to develop evidence-based strategies for health-promoting workplaces in the context of hybrid work, the gig economy, and algorithmic management. Her most cited paper (2025, 4 citations) provides a foundational model for this approach, already influencing EU-level policy discussions. Dr. De Moortel’s contributions are particularly notable for connecting structural labor market changes—such as the rise of non-standard employment and digital platform work—to actionable interventions that protect worker health. Her research has been instrumental in shifting the conversation from individual-level wellness programs to systemic, policy-driven solutions. By synthesizing insights from multiple disciplines, she offers a roadmap for creating resilient, equitable, and health-supportive work environments in an era of rapid change.
