Stress Awareness Workshops
The
Business Case
It is rapidly becoming recognised that stress related
illnesses are the biggest cause of absenteeism. The Health and Safety Executive
have indicated that stress is likely to become the most dangerous risk to business
in the early part of the 21st Century.
The
Financial Case
One estimate puts the cost of stress related illnesses
at £3.8 Billion pounds per year and rising. One in five workers admit to being
extremely stressed at work, and it’s seriously affecting their productivity.
73% of managers suffer stress on a daily basis.
The
Legal Case
With the legal obligations for organisations to
protect the health and well being of its employees, the emerging compensation
culture and the subsequent court cases is currently pushing the system to its
limits.
Your
Competitive Advantage
Retaining the right people and attracting talented new
ones has never been so important. Being seen as the “employer of choice” in any
given market through putting employee welfare high on the agenda leads to
improved morale and less staff turnover whilst having a positive affect on the
bottom line.

causes of stress, both on a business and personal level. We help define what
stress is, where it exists, what the symptoms are and the direct impact it is
having on your business. We then work with you and and your staff to develop
