Our research addresses issues such as workplace health and safety, sustainable business practices, corporate social responsibility (CSR), public health and care management, labour markets, and trade unions. We also explore emerging themes such as regenerative futures and just transitions in the context of energy and environmental change, with a focus on enhancing social equity and long-term sustainability.
	Technology for Humanity - Focusing on the human side of technology, we explore how tech-enabled innovations can be effectively managed to improve work, learning, wellbeing at the individual, team, and organisational levels. Our research spans areas such as the human-AI interface, gamification in organisational settings, digital transformation in higher education, and technology adoption in organisations.
