Isabel S. Silva is an Assistant Professor at the School of Psychology of University of Minho, where she did a PhD in Psychology of Work and Organizations. She has developed her academic activity – teaching, research and interaction with society – in the field of Psychology of Work, Organizations and Human Resources.
The impact of working conditions on occupational health and safety, particularly shiftwork, has been one of the main areas of interest throughout her academic career. Another area of interest focuses on work-life balance (particularly work-family balance), namely on the study of organizational policies and practices that may influence and promote that interface.
