87% of Australians are stressed. The main culprit – work!
A study by Lifeline found ‘73% of working Australians indicating they were stressed about work and 17% saying they were very stressed about it’.
Of course, it’s in employers’ interests to tackle workplace stress. A study by Medibank estimated stress related absenteeism cost the country $14.81 billion in lost productivity each year. And, indeed it’s in every employee’s interest to manage stress levels.
Make sure you participate in the Stress Down Day.
