Stress in the workplace is a growing problem for individuals, employers and government.
This guide looks at the impact of stress on individual employees and on organisations. It provides guidance on identifying and managing stress in the workplace, and on how to build a business case to persuade your organisation to take action.
The guide also explains employers' obligations under health and safety legislation, and the development of the Health and Safety Executive's Stress Management Standards, as well as setting out legal avenues through which employees can make claims against an employer for causing or failing to manage work-related stress.
