Key Areas for Reducing Stress in the Workplace
The HSE identifies six key areas crucial for reducing stress in the workplace:
- Reduce the Demands: Review and adjust employee workloads and work patterns to enhance workflow efficiency. Improving the working environment can also significantly impact productivity.
- Control: Evaluate and modify decision-making control to empower employees.
- Support: Provide necessary resources and encouragement to enable employees to complete tasks effectively and within deadlines.
- Relationships: Foster positive relationships and attitudes between managers and employees.
- Role: Clarify roles within the team to minimize conflict and ensure clarity on responsibilities.
- Change: Effectively manage and communicate organisational changes, ensuring employees understand the impact on their roles and reducing stress levels.
By actively addressing these areas, managers can create a framework to reduce workplace stress and maintain low stress levels among employees over time.
