Course Introduction
About 1 in 5 people report that they either find their work very or extremely stressful
and over half a million people report that they experience work-related stress at
a level they believe has actually caused them illness.
On average, a case of stress-related ill-health leads to 29 working days being lost.
In one recent year a total of 13.4 million working days were lost due to either
stress, depression or anxiety in the UK.
In addition the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) increasingly expect to see that
organisations are managing workplace stress following their guidance.
This training course will help ensure that employees are aware of their part in
helping to manage stress in the workplace and your organisations’ approach to this
risk area.
