Stress at work
In simple terms stress is the adverse reaction people have to excessive pressures or other types of demand placed upon them. Stress generally arises when people worry that they are unable to cope.
In the working environment there is no such thing as a ‘pressure-free’ job. Every single job brings its own set of tasks, responsibilities and day-to-day problems, and the pressures and demands these place on us are an unavoidable part of working life. We are, after all, paid to work and to work hard, and to accept the reasonable pressures that go with that.
Some pressures can be a good thing. It is often the tasks and challenges we face at work that provide the structure to our working days; continuous motivation is the key to a sense of achievement and job satisfaction.
But people’s ability to deal with pressure is not limitless. Excessive workplace pressure and the stress to which it can lead can be harmful.
Eliminating pressure from work may not be possible or desirable but controlling harmful and unnecessary levels of stress will help keep employees fit and healthy.
