Scholarship Description
We are building an interactive website StressCafe©, a coherent single point of access for industry, Government, unions, universities, individuals and community groups to collect, calculate, compare and share research information in relation to working conditions, health and productivity outcomes. Australian workers and organisations will be able to go online and receive real-time feedback about how they fare in relation to industry, state and national, risk and health benchmarks. The PhD will involve the development of an interface to interact with people of all professions to assess their work place stress levels and to benchmark it to the state, national and international standards. The PhD student will be responsible for the theoretical, conceptual and design part of the interface, including the knowledge-based engineering part. The candidate is required to have advanced knowledge of web site authoring, human system interface development and data bases.
