Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2015 in the subject Leadership and Human Resources - Occupational burnout and stress at work, , language: English, abstract: Stress can pervade anyone at any level of business. Recent research shows that work-related stress is widespread and not confined to particular sectors, jobs or industries. Stress is not an illness; it is deemed to be a state. Further research deemed that the condition could be both mental and physical where stress becomes too excessive and prolonged. This varies from individual to individual affecting those unable to cope. It is unclear whether this is stress or depression, however, it is linked with high sickness absence, staff turnover, and increased errors. Therefore, it is a cost to both businesses and individuals. This paper focuses on why organizations should focus on work stress and provides examples of local organizations effectively doing so.
