Managing stress?
October 1st 2008

Everyone experiences pressure during their working life – it helps to motivate us. But excessive pressure can lead to stress related illnesses, the biggest cause of occupational ill health in the UK.

The law requires employers to identify the causes of work related stress, assess the risks and find positive ways to tackle the issues and prevent stress.

By proactively preventing stress, you can have a positive effect on:

• Employees’ health, wellbeing and commitment to work

• Performance and productivity

• Turnover, staff recruitment and retention

• Customer satisfaction

• Organisation’s image and reputation.

But, as an employer, where do you start? Consultants at System Concepts have developed a range of services to help:

• communicate to employees

• develop a stress policy

• identify the causes of work-related stress and assess the risks

• provide interactive training to help managers talk confidently about stress to employees

• work with employees to find solutions to workplace stressors together.
