Consider being mindful to grow life satisfaction
Thursday January 07 2021
Summary
While up to 94 percent of workers report stress on their jobs, an American Psychological Association survey found that 36 percent of employees feel that their workplace stress levels are categorised as high.
A Ginger survey shows that 70 percent of workers feel even more stressed during Covid-19 than at any other point in their professional careers. Stress reduces employee productivity, lowers job satisfaction, increases staff turnover, and increases worker health problems.
Job stress and the commensurate negative effects leave employers scrambling for solutions.
Stress permeates our daily work lives. Arguing colleagues, senseless meetings, promotion fears, job cuts, incompetent bosses, unrealistic key performance indicators all stand out as stress-inducing employment factors.
