Stress at work is a growing concern. It reduces productivity and is a leading cause of sickness absence. And sometimes it goes unnoticed until it’s too late. Getting a handle on stress means an engaged workforce who feel good about you as an employer. Because we know that while some stress can help us achieve great things, too much can undermine our performance.
Better staff retention
The average cost to an organisation of filling an employee vacancy is £2000.
Reduced sick leave
17.9 million days were lost due to stress, depression or anxiety in the UK in 2019/20.
Increased CSR
78% of employers evidence corporate social responsibility by supporting staff health.
What does good stress management look like?
Time management
People handle both routine tasks and new projects faster and more efficiently when they aren’t placed under too much pressure in their jobs.
Sickness absence
When employers recognise and tackle stress, staff don’t feel the need to take time off work just to escape the pressure they’re experiencing.
Health outcomes
When stress is managed well, the physical and mental health of your employees improves, and the whole organisation benefits.
Staff turnover
Reducing stress levels in your company improves both the culture and the environment. And this means fewer people choosing to leave.
