Stress Management

Personal Stress Management

Continual short-term stress can have serious long-term consequences. Therefore it's important to take stock of your life and reduce stressful situations to a minimum. Of course we all need challenges in our life. But when those challenges become stressful then it's time to redress the balance, regaining control over those circumstances that have gone out of control so much that you find it difficult to cope.

Occupational Stress Management

Occupational stress is triggered by factors pertaining to the work environment. These can include the people you work with, deadlines that create increased demands, the actual working environment, dealing with members of the public, transportation problems and more.

If you're an employer stress of your workforce can have a direct impact upon your business through absenteeism, increased accidents, decrease in productivity, poor working relations, such as, bullying or harassment in the work place, etc.

As an employer you have a duty to address such problems because if you don't, as seen in many legal proceedings, your business may be the victim of a stressed employee citing the company as the offender. So, as an employer, are you doing enough to protect your business and your employees?

If you are an employee occupational stress can have a detrimental effect upon your life. Problems at work are invariably taken home and vice versa. Therefore dealing with stress is an important matter that requires immediate action, hopefully before serious health issues manifest.

Industries that are particularly stressful include;transportation, caring professions, IT, teaching, finance, HR, engineering, emergency services, education, etc.
