Stress Management Training & Support

Well-designed, organised and manageable work is good for us, but when insufficient attention to job design, work organisation and management has occurred, it can result in work related stress. Work related stress develops because a person is unable to cope with the demands being placed on them. Stress, including work related stress, can be a significant cause of illness, and is known to be linked with high levels of sickness absence, staff turnover and other issues such as work related errors.

Stress can effect anyone at any level of the business, and recent research shows that work related stress is widespread and is not confined to particular sectors, jobs or industries. That is why a population-wide approach is necessary to tackle it.

It is proven, that when an individual has support when starting to struggle with issues, early intervention will have a very positive impact on their ability to cope. If left to their own devices, often being unable to talk about the problems that they have, the impact on their health and wellbeing can be devastating. There is still a stigma attached to any sort of ‘mental illness’ however serious this may be. Businesses that take a positive and proactive approach in supporting their staff when times are hard, reap the benefits of reducing prolonged absence and improving productivity.
