What we know about stress at work


13 years ago 0 11226 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
In the past week, we’ve been talking about stress management. Contrary to popular belief, stress is not a given when it comes to working. Stress at work often leads to:
  • Decrease in commitment
  • Decreased productivity
  • Increase in incidence of mental health illnesses such as anxiety & depression
  • Increased incidence of absenteeism 
  • Decreased recruitment & retention
  • Decreased customer satisfaction
From this list, you should conclude that learning how to cope effectively with stress in the workplace can result in a better work environment. It also makes you a better employee. If you encourage others to do the same, and help to create a healthier work culture!
 
How does stress impact you at work?
