As stress levels increase, so does employees’ proactive desire for stress management programmes. In the workplace, it’s no secret that stress levels can peak and become problematic for day-to-day life and work activities.
Whether it be increased workloads causing stress, communication barriers with HR professionals and managers, or issues with time and project management, there’s a lot of aspects at work that can cause employee stress levels to rise. It’s important to help employees deal with and reduce their stress levels as it can have a negative impact on productivity, focus, relationships, and overall mental health and wellbeing.
As the UK struggles with poor mental health and support due to the pandemic, economic hardships and more, it’s pushed staff to seek support in the workplace, especially since being at work can be a key contributing factor towards stress and poor mental health. Research has shown that 54% of employees around the UK want access to Stress Reduction Programmes.
Wellbeing strategies, and personal development courses such as Stress Reduction, can have a huge positive impact on employee’s mental health and in turn, it will have a positive impact on productivity and their work.
