Stress At Work

What is stress at work?


We are stressed our whole life but it is only sometimes that stress reaches high levels that negatively affect our functioning. Everyday stress helps us to meet deadlines, increase productivity, arrange meetings with new clients or improve our work motivation in general. This type of stress is normal and allows people to develop new skills, acquire new knowledge, and possibly improve their careers. When individual is constantly stressed and cannot relax the line is crossed and normal stress becomes excessive. This change can trigger emotional and physical responses that are harmful to employees and bussineses, therefore it should be avoided if possible.

How does stress affect people at work?


It reduces productivity, motivation and team work. Stressed employee will be less communicative and unsusceptible to new tasks. His motivation will be battered and his productivity reduced. Stress at workplace will not only affect his work performance but also his personal life. This can lead to even further reduction of work productivity and can result in quitting the job.

It is important for managers and staff work hand in hand when approaching stress management. Only cooperation of all involved individuals can result in successful stress reduction.
