Stressed staff could cost employers 20m working days
A total of 20m working days could be lost this year as a result of stress related absences from staff, according to new research by workplace consultancy Croner.
13.5m days were lost as a result of stress between 2007 and 2008 in the UK, and a recent survey by Croner revealed that 50% of workers feel more stressed now than a year ago.
"The survey reveals that work is the uppermost concern of employees at the moment. This should be a real wake-up call for British bosses who may be in denial that stress is a concern in their organisation," said Gillian Dowling, employment technical consultant at Croner.
The research found that the top three causes of stress for UK employees were work (63%), finances (62%) and the economy (49%).
