Annoying habits stress employees out
|
|
A new survey from Ceridian reveals that while colleagues' annoying habits can stress them out, 58% of UK office workers would not complain to their manager about it and two thirds would not bring it to the attention of their HR department. The top three most stressful office worker habits are colleagues' excuses to avoid work (21%), tantrums and arguments in open spaces (11%) and gossiping and private conversations (9%).
Doug Sawers, Managing Director of Ceridian in the UK, said, "It would appear many employees are suffering in silence with their managers and HR departments unaware of internal stress triggers. Today's employers must be aware of potential stressors within the workplace and the impact of these on their employees. The CBI estimates the cost to British business of lost productivity through mental illness and stress to be £5 billion, so this is a problem that ultimately affects the bottom line. Managers need to be properly trained to identify and correct negative behaviour to avoid undue employee stress and potential confrontation in the work place." Of the 1,004 respondents participating in this latest online stress survey, 55% worked in organisations employing over 500 people, 79% worked over 30 hours per week and 53% were male.
