While the United Nations identified “full and productive employment and decent work for all” as one of its 2015 Global Goals for Sustainable Development, there has been limited progress to support employees who develop Mild Cognitive Impairment or early-stage dementia (MCI/Dem). Workplaces currently approach the situation from a ‘limitations’ perspective, which often leaves employees with MCI/Dem without the option to keep working. The CogWorks project will create systemic models and explore novel business paradigms to flip the current limitations archetype to one of possibilities for employees and employers in Canada. This will include identifying facilitators and barriers to sustaining employees with MCI/Dem as well as systemic changes needed for accommodations that are in line with existing disability legislation. CogWorks will collaborate with employers, employees, healthcare, and policy makers to explore ways that workspaces could become sustainable for people with MCI/Dem. We will create systemic models of the landscape to enable the mapping of proposed changes at levels ranging from governmental to individual. We will explore motivators for employers, including social return on investment, and synthesise this with the aspirations of people with MCI/Dem in relation to staying at work or transitioning out. We will also examine the potential, as well as the challenges, of developing and implementing supporting technologies into sustainable workspaces for employees with MCI/Dem. The outcomes of CogWorks will be threefold: 1. A model of current workplaces for MCI and early dementia; 2. A policy agenda addressing current gaps and drivers for developing sustainable workspaces; and 3. Requirements for existing and new technology innovations to support sustainable workspaces. Products will include CogWorks website and resources including organizational case studies, sustainability models to demonstrate economic and social return on investment, prioritized product requirements, and a national support network of organizations with sustainable workplaces.
