Dealing With Work Stress


Stress is your body’s response to increased tension. Stress is normal: you need stress to accept challenges, to concentrate on doing a difficult task, and to make important decisions. Hence, stress is necessary at work.

But too much stress at work can be harmful to your health, because it unduly increases your production of hormone epinephrine, and thus wearing out your hormonal glands. Chronic stress can cause your body to undergo long-term physiological reactions, resulting in depletion of vital nutrients, including DHEA (a hormone critical to anti-aging and longevity).

Stress at work is one of the main reasons for taking sick leave.

One of the causes of stress at work is a demanding workload with unrealistic deadlines to meet. Time stress is a critical factor in creating stress at work.

In contrast, not having enough work may also be stressful. If an employee works in an unstimulating work environment, he or she may have concern of redundancy or the possibility of loss of employment. This concern is real enough to be stressful.

Frustration at work is another cause of stress. Frustration can result from being passed off in promotion, or unsatisfactory work environment, such as crowded working conditions or a dangerous work place. In addition, interpersonal problems, such as competitiveness at work, frequent confrontation with the public, or resentment from co-workers can contribute to work stress.

Relocation can be work stress in that it involves selling the house, changing schools for children, and the hassles of moving.

Sexual harassment may be a stressful situation for women at work. Sexual harassment is a form of sex discrimination in employment.

A passive solution to deal with work stress is to find a new job. Unfortunately, this may not be a long-term solution. As a matter of fact, you might be jumping from the frying pan into the fire. The long-term solution is learning to cope with work stress.

If there is too much workload, it is important to delegate your work to others, especially your subordinates — even if you are a workaholic. Learn to prioritize your work and set realistic goals for yourself as well as for your subordinates.

If your supervisor is always dumping too much work on you, keep a diary or daily journal to document your workload, and make a formal complaint to the higher authority, especially if the extra workload is not within your job description. Remember, you have the right to decline any unrealistic demands on you.
