Vienna After Dark: Mental Health and Nighttime Industry – How to Prevent Burnout
Thursday Jan 23, 2025
Thursday Jan 23, 2025
Stress, irregular working hours, drugs and alcohol are not good for your health - people who work in nightlife are much more exposed to these risk factors than others.
According to a 2021 study, for example, almost 66% of DJs and electronic music artists have suffered from burnout at least once during their career - but it's rarely talked about.
It's time to break this taboo!
What is the best way to deal with the risks that come with a night-time profession? What structural changes would be necessary to take better account of the mental well-being of employees and artists? And what successful approaches are known, e.g. from other professional environments?
This episode was recorded live during the Vienna After Dark conference.
