What goes on in workers’ minds after a stressful work day and what is it about their jobs
that got them thinking like this? This Special Issue of the German Journal of Human
Resource Management (GHRM) aims to bridge the gap between research on cognitive
recovery processes (e.g., detachment, work reflection, rumination, problem-solving
pondering) that were mainly examined in Occupational Health Psychology, and research
on employee stress and working times (Blagoev et al., 2018) in the field of Human
Resource Management. We hope that this integration will not only stimulate theoretical
advancement concerning recovery from work but also uncover important practical
implications that help organizations respond to currently pressing HR challenges.
