Understanding Stress
Stress is the body's response to pressure over which an individual has little or no control, it can manifest in many ways from affecting eating habits, sex life, holiday patterns, sleeping behaviours and crucially the ability to think. Those under the impact of stressors frequently report sitting at their workstation unable to think about what or how to do work that they are familiar and experienced in. The HSE's research identifies that over 40% of all workers will at some point be unable to cope within their work situation due to excessive or out of their control pressures.
This translates into approximately 10.5 million lost working days per annum – How much productivity are you losing and how many people in your organisation are working below their potential because of this issue.
