Abstract

Humans have always naturally lived in groups, which has asignificant impact on the well-being and mental stability of the individual. Various physiological processes are coregulated via the closeness of other persons. About one third of our adulthood is spent at work where social relationships often play an important role, because we are typically working with other individuals in groups or ateam. In these situations, mutual support and successful cooperation can develop, which promotes the mental and physical health of the employees of acompany ("social capital"). From various perspectives it becomes obvious that the quality of relationships at the workplace is akey factor for the satisfaction and health of individual employees as well as for the cohesion, resilience and performance of the entire team. This is confirmed by empirical findings that still need to be expanded, especially with respect to the neurobiological associations of the cooperation in teams and individual health.
