Why do I need to de-stress my employees?

According to the Health and Safety Executive

Reason 1: Significant reductions in staff sickness and absence:

• Work-related stress accounts for over a third of all new incidences of ill health.
• Each case of stress-related ill health leads to an average of 30.9 working days lost.
• A total of 12.8 million working days were lost to stress, depression and anxiety in 2004/5.

This will not improve on its own. Only by taking a positive step and treating stress in your workforce can you make a difference.

Reason 2: Tackling stress at work can have the following positive effects:

• Improved employee commitment to work;
• Improved staff performance and productivity;
• Reduced staff turnover;
• Reduced staff recruitment costs;
• Improved customer satisfaction;
• Improved corporate image and reputation.

Reason 3: To comply with the law:

• Under the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 companies are required to assess the risk of stress-related ill health arising from work activities;
• Under the Health and Safety at Work etc Act 1974 to take measures to control that risk.
