ERGONOMICS FOR DEVELOPMENT STRESS MANAGEMENT IN THE WORKPLACE

There are several elements associated with stress during work hours that lead to workers’ mental and physical deterioration. Individuals in modern life commonly experience unhappiness due to emotions of unfairness, loneliness, pressure, and pessimism. As a result, many people experience absenteeism, workplace mishaps, and even suicidal thoughts. Employee stress at work can also have a negative impact on an organisation’s operations, resulting in higher absenteeism, poor work attitudes, and lower quality of work and productivity.
