Modern people are told so much about stress that this fact in itself causes stress for many. Of course, because you start to remember all your accumulated responsibilities and duties, promises to friends and family. You promised yourself you'd solve all of this, but you don't have the energy anymore! We spend most of our time at work and working hours affect the rest of the day, so we suggest you take a look at what you should pay attention to:
- Overload;
- Increase in clients, increase in demand, less control in processes;
- Too easy uninspiring work;
- Low employee participation in decision making;
- Lack of control over one's activities;
- Organizational change;
- Lack of support from the supervisor;
- Workplace conflict, toxic coworkers;
- Lack of career advancement.
These and many other factors can cause occupational stress.
Occupational stress is a tense state due to extreme situations and negative emotions at work. Which of the stressors described above are typical for you? You probably have your own list of situations that cause stress. Evaluate all of these situations and determine how they affect your life and how you can improve the situation. This is just what we will need in the first step for long-term stress management. Chronic stress is the one that lasts for a long period of time. You may have chronic stress if you have financial problems, an unhappy marriage, or problems at work.
