The Need to Train and Educate Employees and Managers to Drive Self-Transformation and Disconnection From Digital Technology*

Abstract: All workers, but especially managers in charge and managers, must be trained and made aware of the risks of computer fatigue and the need to exercise the right to digital disconnection. In this way, an important step will be taken to change the business culture and climate and thus promote the well-being of workers. If managers and managers hardly disconnect from technology, hardly will their collaborators. In short, both one and the other must be aware of the physical psychosocial risks of not disconnecting after a day's work or during permits, vacations or temporary disabilities. Without a doubt, the computer fatigue that the Spanish legislator incorporated at the end of 2018 is the most serious psychosocial risk that the position with command and the worker can suffer. To avoid it, training and awareness actions are essential to clarify the dangers of constant non-connectivity to digital and telematic media.
