Stress in your
life:
Today stress is a fact of life, and the workplace is no
exception. The effects of
stress are cumulative and without time to relax and recharge, can lead to headaches,
backaches, eyestrain, neck pain, repetitive use injuries such as tendonitis
or carpal tunnel syndrome. Stress
can cause listlessness, poor concentration, anxiety, depression,
irritability, or anger. It can
cause lowered resistance to colds and infections, as well as physical and
emotional exhaustion known as “burn out.”
Recent studies
show that:
Up to 90% of all visits to primary care physicians are for
stress-related complaints. Over
50% of lost work days are stress-related.
14% of workers say stress caused them to quit or change jobs in the
previous two years.
