The results of a survey conducted by Eastern Kentucky University on the impact of work related stress on employee health and productivity are staggering. Here are the primary culprits:
-Workload: 46 percent
-Personnel Issues: 28 percent
-Juggling Work/Life Balance: 20 percent
-Job Security: 6 percent
I initially wrote about the issue of stress in the workplace in April 2013 when discussing how CEOs are improving performance via meditation, hypnosis and other tools and tactics. When you consider the results of this new survey, it's apparent the positive impact from a corporate stress reduction initiative would extend well beyond the executive suite.
