F.A.Q.
Work Related Stress – What is it?
A 2007 poll of 2,000 employees revealed that 46 per cent of respondents rated their jobs "highly stressful". An estimated 40 million working days are lost each year to stress-related illnesses, costing industries £1.5bn a year.
Work related stress is the reaction people have to excessive demands or pressures in the work place. You may find it difficult to cope with tasks, responsibilities or other types of job related pressures or you might get anxious trying to meet such demands. It isn't just bad for your work, it could also be affecting your health.
What causes work related stress?
Work related stress may be caused or amplified by a number of factors including:
Bad relations with other work colleagues
Long and/or irregular hours
Too little work
Repetitive work/boredom and lack of job satisfaction
Working alone
Job insecurity
Job or organisational change
Low pay
Jobs with heavy emotional demands
Poor working environments such as excessive noise, the presence of dangerous materials, over-crowding, poor facilities, or extremities of temperature or humidity
Increased accessibility - the use of mobile phones, pagers and emails means the boss can always chase up work.
The situation can be made worse if there is bullying, conflict, harassment, and indifference to staff needs. Where the organisation lacks leadership, work arrangements, deadlines and demands are set without consultation and seem to be inflexible, this leads to a high degree of uncertainty about direction, purpose, objective and job responsibilities amongst staff.
