In many countries, employers have a legal responsibility to recognize and deal with stress in the workplace so that employees do not become physically or mentally ill.

It is important to tackle the causes of stress in the workplace as stress at work can lead to problems for the individual, working relationships and the overall working environment.  These issues may include lowered self-esteem and poor concentration skills for the employee. The employer may suffer from increasing customer complaints, staff turnover and days lost to sickness.

Managing stress in the workplace is therefore an essential part of both individual and corporate responsibility.

High levels of Stress in the Workplace can lead to:

---

• Poor decision-making.
• An increase in mistakes which in turn may lead to more customer or client complaints. This in turn is likely to produce more stress.
• Increased sickness and absence.
• High staff turnover.
• Poor employee/work place relations.

In the UK, the Health & Safety Executive (HSE) has issued a guide entitled Tackling Stress: The Management Standards Approach (2005) which outlines areas of the workplace that should be monitored in order to assess levels of stress.
