Did you know that work-related stress accounts for over a third of ill health?
Or that each case of work-related stress, depression or anxiety related
ill health leads to an average of 30.2 working days lost.
Plus a massive total of 13.8 million working days were lost to work-related
stress, depression and anxiety in 2006/07. Smart foundations can help your
organisation reduce sickness and absence costs.
Research from the Health and Safety Executive shows tackling stress can have a positive effect on:
- Employee commitment to work
- Staff performance and productivity
- Staff turnover or intention to leave
- Staff recruitment and retention
- Customer satisfaction
- Organisational image and reputation
Most employers focus on helping employees who have suffered stress-related ill health to return to work rather than tackling its causes, according to a survey by Personnel Today's sister publication Employment Review.
