Lessons for managers on reducing stress

摘要

New guidance has been published to help organisations reduce stress in the workplace, the second biggest cause of employee absence behind musculo-skeletal conditions.rnThe publication, Line management behaviour and stress at work, draws on in-depth research involving interviews and surveys with hundreds of managers and employees, as well as an evaluation of manager train-rning in stress management competencies across 17 organisations. It sets out the key management behaviours (grouped under four competency headings) for managing stress at work.
