$300 Billion Profit Killer—Workplace
Stress Overload
In
addition to causing low morale and a host of other human
resources issues, stress is taking a big bite out of
corporate profits. Research estimates that stress costs
businesses in the USA $200 to $300 million a year. In
Britain, half of all working days lost each year are due
to stress. Stress takes its toll in different
forms--absenteeism, employee turnover, low productivity,
accidents, workers compensation as well as medical and
legal fees.
Author Ravi Tangri, says a company could boost profits
by 14% a year just by dealing with workplace stress.
Programs to reduce stress at work typically pay for
themselves within six months.

The nature of
work is rapidly changing. Job stress poses a major threat to
the health of workers and, in turn, to their organizations.
Stress claims are
becoming the single most costly claim in the worker's
compensation system.
"Job stress can be defined as the harmful
physical and emotional responses that occur when the
requirements of the job do not match the capabilities,
resources, or needs of the worker."
