Fixing workplace stress is in everyone’s interest

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.
