The digitalization of transport, logistics, and home care industries has fundamentally reshaped job demands and workplace dynamics. In my recent study; Digital competence is a must: Manager and safety representative perspectives on evolving job skills and balancing digital work environments (available here), written togheteher with Simon Asplund, Teresia Nyman, Magnus Svartengren and Therese Hellman at Uppsala University, we explored how these industries are adapting to the rapid integration of technology from a work environmental perspective.
Spoiler: Digital competence isn’t optional anymore. Whether it’s managing ICT systems or navigating a tidal wave of administrative demands, workers need to adapt—and fast. While digitalization does bring perks like improved safety and streamlined communication, it also comes with a catch. Increased traceability and packed schedules can make employees feel more like data points than people. As one transport manager put it, “They’ve been working in the same way for 10–15 years, and then someone comes in with new stuff, new technology… things they don’t really understand.”
And it’s not just about understanding new tech—it’s about having the time to learn it. One safety representative highlighted the frustration, saying, “I find it a bit disappointing that they have not provided sufficient training in these specific digital tools that we are supposed to use, such as the computers. And how they actually should be used in practice.” This disconnect between expectations and resources is a recurring theme in our findings.
The study employed a qualitative approach, featuring 24 semi-structured interviews with managers and safety representatives across 22 organizations. This methodology allowed us to gather in-depth perspectives on the challenges and opportunities posed by digitalization. Participants were drawn from industries that typically have lower educational attainment and high turnover rates, making the transition to a digitally driven environment particularly complex.
To address these challenges, organizations must invest in comprehensive employee training, allocate time for recovery within schedules, and promote transparency around system usage. Encouraging clear boundaries for technology use outside work hours is also vital to maintaining employee well-being. In industries characterized by high demands, diverse workforces, and rapid turnover, these strategies are not just beneficial—they’re critical.

As the year winds down and we find ourselves in the week before the Christmas holidays, it’s natural to feel a bit overwhelmed. Many of us might be reflecting on the year gone by, caught up in thoughts of goals we didn’t quite meet or projects that remain unfinished. But pause for a moment and ask yourself—what if you’ve already done your very best? What if the sum of your efforts this year is more than enough? Take a trip back through your calendar, revisit your old to-do lists, and reflect on your accomplishments from 2024. Big or small, each step you’ve taken contributes to the bigger picture of growth and progress. Maybe it’s a breakthrough in your research, the collaboration that sparked new ideas, the challenges you overcame, or the support you offered to colleagues. These are all achievements worth celebrating. We often underestimate how much we contribute, not only in terms of measurable outcomes but also through the dedication, creativity, and resilience we bring to our work. So, as you wrap up the year, take a moment to acknowledge your efforts and be proud of what you’ve achieved. You deserve it!
This new method addresses a crucial challenge in the fast-evolving world of mobile health (mHealth)—evaluating usability and persuasiveness in a way that aligns with agile development processes.
Published in the Health Informatics Journal, this study presents a usability evaluation method tailored for persuasive mHealth applications. Whether designed for caregivers or other health-related purposes, HealthCheck helps ensure these applications are user-friendly, effective, and engaging.

As Västra Götalandsregionen (VGR) embarks on the ambitious Millennium EHR project, it’s crucial to draw lessons from past large-scale implementations. A study by Morten Hertzum, Gunnar Ellingsen, and Åsa Cajander provides invaluable insights into the challenges and outcomes of introducing the Epic electronic health record (EHR) system in Denmark and Finland. This study holds significant relevance for VGR’s journey, especially given the concerns raised about Millennium’s implementation, as highlighted in this interview.
The Nordic Experience with Epic
The study focuses on two large-scale Epic implementations:
Denmark: The system went live in 2016–2017 across 12 hospitals serving 2.6 million citizens.
Finland: Starting in 2018, Epic was rolled out in the Helsinki-Uusimaa region, integrating healthcare and social care for 1.7 million people.
Despite extensive preparation, both implementations faced persistent challenges, including usability issues, productivity dips, and unmet expectations. Five years post-implementation, 32% of Danish users remained dissatisfied, while only 9.3% of Finnish physicians felt the system improved care quality.
Key Takeaways for the Millennium Implementation
Unmet Expectations: Both Danish and Finnish projects suffered from a gap between high pre-implementation hopes and post-implementation realities. The study emphasizes the importance of realistic goal-setting and proactive issue resolution.
Usability Matters: Poor interface design, unclear terminology, and excessive clicks plagued users, leading to frustration. These issues were often exacerbated by attempts to fit a U.S.-centric system into a Nordic healthcare model.
Long-Term Adaptation: Initial productivity dips lasted longer than anticipated, and resolving system issues required years, not months. Planning for extended adaptation is critical.
Workload Redistribution: Shifting documentation tasks to physicians without adequate support led to dissatisfaction. Any similar changes in Millennium need careful consideration.
Localized Customization: Balancing regional standardization with local needs is complex. Both Denmark and Finland struggled to find the right mix, leading to discontent among users.
The study underscores the importance of learning from past implementations to avoid repeating mistakes. These large implementation project must prioritize usability, realistic planning, and user-centered design to succeed where others have struggled. Transparent communication and adaptive strategies will be vital in navigating the complexities of a project of this scale.
Jonathan Källbäcker and I attended the Applied Human Factors and Ergonomics 2024 conference in Nice, France during the summer. The tasty seafood and baked goods found in the region aside, we were there to present a paper in the AROA-project. The conference was held at Campus St Jean at Université Côte d’Azur over four days and consisted of about 150 sessions of about five to seven presentations each split across 42 tracks and about 100 posters. Since it was not possible to attend all the sessions (I only got around to 12 of them), I chose to prioritize sessions related to work and AI.
Nice, France
This blog post consists of my pick of three highlights of the conference in the order of their sessions occurred, some issues with the conference format and how I would try to work around them if I organised a conference in the future, and a summary of the paper we presented on the conference. With a conference of this size, this will not be much more than a snapshot of it.
Highlights as an Attendee
During the session on Human factors in game design, Andrade (2024) presented on the placement of buttons in video game ads and the consequences of placing buttons outside of a handheld devices’ functional area. The functional area is often discussed as the space where buttons should be placed on handheld touch screens to make sure that they are reachable, but the design literature I have used in teaching rarely boggle down into the actual consequences of and reasons for placing buttons outside of it. The presentation discussed how this deliberate design choice makes the button hard to reach which increases the time needed to press the button and the duration of the ad that was viewed. It also causes a lot of strain and ads in free mobile games are common and often require multiple button presses. While the presentation was not related to AI or work, it was a highlight of the conference as it was an interesting and well-presented while contextualising and giving very practical and clear implications for a heavily discussed but maybe often-overlooked design principle.
The title of the session Individualization of services using Generative AI was a bit misleading as most presentations of the session were about the future of technology in some way. The session was packed with interesting topics, such as Grosch (2024) and Haase (2024) presented on future skills, Stübinger (2024) discussed how students would use generative AI in their work processes, Kröckel (2024) presented a literature review on how Generative AI can redefine emergency services, and Nhi et al. (2024) looked at awareness of environmental impact and willingness to reduce behaviours of video stream consumption. While the session overall gave a promising view of our adaption for the future, the presentation by Nhi et al. (2024) was one of the strongest presentations I attended as it conveyed its research gap and takeaway points very well, had a clear and visually interesting set of slides, while managing to portray their research in ways that anyone could understand.
Left: Stübinger (2024), Middle: Maibaum et al (2024), Right: Nhi et al. (2024)
The last highlight was the session Digital Dynamics in the Workplace, Exploring AI Integration, Flexible Work Models, and Participatory Design. The presenters were mainly from ifaa (it apparently translates to Institute for applied work science) in Germany and they were doing a lot of interesting research on work design and designing for work processes which turned out to be an interesting angle of approach compared to the workplace studies that we are doing in the research project I am in. The presentations included interesting things such as the need of workers in public administration (Maibaum et al. 2024), Socio-technical success factors for AI-based knowledge management (Reyes et al. 2024) and work design of chipping production (Weber et al 2024).
Conference Format Issues and Possible Workarounds
The main issues we experienced with the conference was due to the hybrid format and with the scheduling. The conference was hybrid and a lot of presenters were presenting and attending remotely. This was done through a video conference tool which a volunteer moderated by allowing participants to screen-share and such. We watched the keynote remotely on our way to the conference and but the conference call only had the slides being shared, not the audio so we didn’t hear what was said. Multiple attendees wrote about this in the chat but no one took note of it. When we arrived at the conference, we noticed the same issues taking place. The audio from the conference was often not turned on in the conference call and when it was, the microphones were not working well with the presentation set up and often cut out. Attendees wrote about it in the video call chat during those sessions as well, but the volunteers were not tasked with keeping up with the chat in the video call and often left the room during the presentation which made them not aware of the issues. By using proper microphones for such type of usage, having the volunteers be active in the video call chat, and preparing a cheat sheet for how to fix audio issues for the volunteers would have solved a lot of issues with the hybrid format and improved the participants experience of the conference.
The conference program
The other issue was that the scheduling of the sessions was at times uneven and the lack of breaks between the afternoon sessions caused sessions to run into the time slot for the following session. Each day was split into four time slots for sessions. The third time slot each day was only 60 minutes while the rest were 90 minutes. That being said, multiple sessions in the third time slot had 6 or 7 presentations of 10 minutes each while some of the 90-minute sessions only had 4 or 5. By either prolonging the 60-minute session to 90 minutes or by adjusting the number of presentations in those slots to fit within the time allotted to it, you would reduce the number of clashes and delays experienced. This is issue was further worsened by the lack of a break between the third and fourth time slot which made it impact the fourth slot even more. Adding a short break between those session would have reduced the amount of clashed and allowed people the time to move from one session to another.
We presented a paper
As you might be aware, we are working with a project on digital work engagement in which we are studying the impacts of automation, robotisation, and AI on work engagement in different domains with the aim to synthesise a framework on working towards digital work engagement. During the conference, we presented our initial findings from a workshop with our reference group regarding enabling technologies and work engagement (Bergqvist et al 2024). The members of the reference group got to discuss challenges and opportunities with enabling technologies within their domains as well as challenges and concerns regarding work engagement. Some of the main takeaways included that while the potential financial impacts of automation, robotisation, and AI in the work place are many and easy to imagine, we cannot forget about the concerns regarding sustainability, inequality, fear of lack of competence, and job displacement that exist in the work force. We need to continue to look into strategies to prevent discrimination induced and enforced by technology and continue to study the societal impacts that these technologies bring with them into the work place, society, and humanity.
We are also happy to say, if you haven’t heard about it yet, that we got the best paper award in the category of Challenges with AI at the Human Level.
The project is financially supported by Afa Försäkringar.

Informal caregivers—family and friends supporting loved ones with chronic illnesses or disabilities—play a critical role in our healthcare ecosystem. Yet, their contributions often go unnoticed, and they face challenges like stress, burnout, and a lack of resources. Our recent research, published in the Journal of Medical Internet Research (JMIR), reviews the literature and explores how IT applications can alleviate these burdens and empower caregivers. This study was led by Shweta Premanandan with Awais Ahmad, and Åsa Cajander from the HTO group among others. The purpose of this study was to conduct a scoping review to outline design recommendations for IT applications gathered from informal caregivers. In addition, this study presents evaluations of the use of IT applications by informal caregivers.
The methodological framework by Arksey and O’Malley (2005) for scoping reviews was followed for this review. A structured search was conducted across the PubMed, Scopus, IEEE Xplore Digital Library, Web of Science, and ACM Digital Library databases. In addition, reference list hand searches and keyword searches in Google Scholar were undertaken. Two reviewers independently identified articles for review and extracted the data. Conflicts were resolved through discussion, with a third reviewer consulted if consensus could not be attained. Thematic analysis was used to analyze the data.
With an aging population and stretched healthcare resources, informal caregivers are increasingly shouldering the responsibility of care. While rewarding, caregiving often leads to significant emotional and physical strain. IT applications offer a promising solution, acting as virtual assistants and support networks. However, these tools must be thoughtfully designed to address the unique and diverse needs of caregivers. A total of 82 articles were selected for the scoping review—44 (54%) related to design and 39 (48%) related to evaluation of IT applications.
What to include in these Caregiver Support Applications?
Easy Access to Information Caregivers need quick, clear, and tailored advice. Good apps provide step-by-step guides, helpful tips, and even myth-busting facts to clear up common misconceptions.
Support Networks Caring can feel lonely. Apps that connect caregivers to support groups or online communities help people share experiences, advice, and even a laugh.
Streamlining Tasks Managing medications, tracking health updates, or coordinating with family members can get overwhelming. Apps that organize all this in one place save time and stress.
Caring for the Caregiver Caregivers often forget to care for themselves. Some apps include features like relaxation exercises, gratitude journals, or tips on staying healthy.
Better Communication with Healthcare Professionals Many caregivers need information or quick access to a healthcare professional or to share updates with doctors or navigate healthcare systems. Apps that simplify this communication help everyone stay on the same page.
Simple Tools for Daily Tasks Reminders, user-friendly interfaces, and voice commands can make apps easier for caregivers to use, even if they’re not tech-savvy.
What caregivers think about these tools?
Most caregivers like the idea of using apps to help them. They appreciate:
Quick Access to Information: Being able to find answers right away.
Social Connections: Knowing they’re not alone.
Flexibility: Using the app when it fits their schedule.
But there are challenges, too. Some caregivers worry about:
Privacy: Will their data be safe?
Trust: Is the app’s information reliable?
Ease of Use: Older caregivers may struggle with complex apps.
Looking Ahead
As technology continues to evolve, so do the opportunities to create more impactful tools for caregivers. Our findings act as a starting point for designers to design IT applications for caregivers that not only ease caregiving tasks but also foster a supportive ecosystem for caregivers.
Let’s continue the conversation. What features would you like to see in future caregiving applications? Or any other comments. Share your thoughts with us!
In the digital age of healthcare, why do some patients engage with electronic health records (EHRs) while others opt out? A study led by Irene Muli with Åsa Cajander from HTO and others explore this question. Conducted seven years after Sweden introduced patient-accessible electronic health records (PAEHRs), the research reveals both progress and persistent gaps in adoption.
The study found that while 86% of patients were aware of PAEHRs, 23% chose not to read their records. Common reasons included feeling they didn’t need to or being satisfied with information from their doctor. Meanwhile, readers primarily sought a health overview or followed up on healthcare visits. A digital divide emerged, with older adults, single individuals, and those with lower information literacy less likely to engage, while smartphone access significantly increased use.
Key Takeaways for Healthcare Providers
Barriers like portal usability and digital literacy hinder PAEHR adoption. For healthcare professionals, simple actions—such as guiding patients during visits—can improve uptake. Targeted support for older or less tech-savvy patients is essential to ensure equitable access.
The Swedish experience highlights opportunities for other countries: usable portals, better training, and promoting the benefits of digital tools. By addressing these barriers, we can make healthcare more inclusive and empower all patients to take charge of their health.

As technology continues to evolve, so do the ways people interact with it. From wearables and voice-based systems to virtual and augmented reality (VR and AR), sensors, and artificial intelligence (AI), human interaction with digital systems has transformed drastically. Simultaneously, urgent challenges affecting the health of the planet, including climate change, biodiversity loss, and inequality, has made the role of research and design in transformative change increasingly important as we pursue a sustainable, just and resilient future. These transformations push the boundaries of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), as it necessitates the integration of the many different ways people engage with technology. Biomimicry, or biometrics, the practice of emulating forms, functions, and systems found in nature (Vincent et al., 2006), offers a unique approach to designing HCI systems that are intuitive, regenerative, and sustainable.
Why Biomimicry for HCI?
Biomimicry invites HCI researchers and designers to rethink interactions with technologies. Beyond inspiring new design aesthetics, biomimicry offers insights into designing systems that process data intuitively, sends and receives signals, respond dynamically, and adapt as living organisms do within their ecosystems. By applying design principles abstracted from nature, HCI researchers and designers can create systems that are more adaptable, environmentally responsive, and seamlessly integrated with users’ surroundings. When we incorporate these adaptive strategies into HCI, we can create interfaces that are more intuitive and efficient, using fewer resources and contributing to a regenerative approach to technology. Nature is a network of adaptive interfaces that continuously sense, process, and respond to environmental signals. Imagine if our digital systems could similarly evolve and adapt based on changes in their environment.
Workshop Highlights: Exploring Nature’s Blueprint for HCI
At two recent “Biomimicry for HCI” workshops at Uppsala University, participants delved into nature’s models of sensing, processing, and adapting to information, discovering ways to inspire “living” interfaces. In such interfaces, information is not merely displayed but dynamically revealed in response to environmental cues. The workshops aimed to:
Bridge biomimicry and HCI: Participants brainstormed and conceptualized interfaces inspired by natural, organic processes.
Go beyond screen-based interaction: Moving away from traditional, screen-centered designs, they considered how natural systems communicate, sense, and process data.
Design for sustainability and intuitiveness: By translating nature’s efficient, adaptive mechanisms, participants envisioned HCI systems that are integrated within their environments, where users interact with a system that feels responsive and organically integrated.
Conclusion: Toward a Biomimicry-Inspired HCI
The workshops offered new perspectives on designing HCI systems that emulate models found in nature. By emulating nature’s strategies for adaptation and sustainability, we can create HCI systems that are not only intuitive but also deeply integrated with their environments. This reframing encourages researchers and designers to approach interfaces as living entities that, like natural systems, process and adapt to sensory data fluidly, responding to users as ecosystems respond to environmental cues. Nature does more than aesthetically inspire, it offers models for creating HCI frameworks where the interface itself becomes a dynamic, living system, continuously adapting to and engaging with its surroundings.
In the rapidly evolving field of HCI, biomimicry offers an approach beyond conventional screen-based interaction toward a future where interfaces breathe, respond, and co-exist in harmony with the natural world.
