Resilience and Stress Awareness are skills that make a real difference to the wellbeing of your employees at work.

 

Whilst experiencing pressure and challenge is part of everyday life, being able to respond, cope and thrive when facing a variety of situations at work can be difficult to achieve.

 

Providing employees with the skill set to manage their response to stressful events, and provide them with the ability to demonstrate resilience and a positive outlook in challenging situations, will all promote a working environment where employees can flourish and achieve a sense of wellbeing at work.

All of us will experience stress at some time in our working life and it remains one of the largest causes of work related absence.

 

The impact of stress is real for both mental and physical health. How individuals manage the pressures that are exerted on them within the workplace, and the support available to them, will directly link to the performance, relationships, decision making and creativity that individuals are able to demonstrate.

 

Unsupported, those individuals experiencing stress may develop anxiety and other serious stress related conditions.  It is important that managers are aware of the impact that stress can have, and the measures that are available to balance and reduce stress in themselves and for their teams.

 

Resilience and Stress Awareness Programmes are a positive way to support employees as they face challenges in the workplace.  They also equip managers with the skills to be better able to appropriately support their teams in times of stress and pressure.
