CAUSES OF STRESS AT WORK
Main areas that can lead to work-related stress if they are not managed properly.
For example:
Demands of their jobs
Work overload
Lack of support from HR/Managers
Relationships at work, or are being bullied
Unclear of role and responsibilities
Stress affects people differently – what stresses one person may not affect another. Factors like skills and experience, age or disability may all affect whether an employee can cope.
