About this position
This PhD project at the National Research Centre for the Working Environment focuses on the connections between occupational accidents, well-being, and dropout across vocational education programmes in Denmark.
The project is rooted in the research area of occupational accidents and safety culture, which is organisationally integrated with psychosocial work environment research. As a PhD student, you will analyse how different organisational and educational contexts may protect against, or amplify, the risk of workplace accidents, poor well-being, and dropout among apprentices.
You will be embedded in a multidisciplinary research environment at NFA, working alongside researchers at different career stages on a broad portfolio of work-environment projects. The advert highlights both qualitative and quantitative approaches within the research areas, and notes access to unique datasets on occupational health and work organisation in companies.
The position also includes enrolment at a Danish university, giving you a university-based PhD environment in addition to your role at NFA. The broader research setting includes close collaboration with adjacent fields such as ergonomics and work environment economics, and the project is designed so the PhD student can help shape their own research within these environments.

The advert strongly prefers good analytical skills, practical experience with quantitative methods and data analysis, experience with collecting and cleaning quantitative register data in the occupational health field, interest in the links between organizational and educational factors and safety, and documented experience with scientific and public communication in writing and orally. Strong self-drive and the ability to work with multiple stakeholders are important, and knowledge of labour-market relations is considered an advantage. The candidate must be eligible for enrolment as a PhD student at a Danish university.
