what makes employees stressed at work?

There are two main categories used to identify employee (specifically managerial) stress, which are challenge-related and hindrance-related.

Challenge-related refers to time pressures from work, general job overload, or high levels of responsibility. 

Hindrance-related refers to challenges or constraints that get in the way of work, such as red tape/bureaucracy and politics. 

Both categories of stress can create lower job satisfaction and engagement, and can spur employees to start searching for a new job or disengage from their current role.

There are a number of strategies that employers can enact to combat these types of stressors so as to retain valuable employees and managers.  We have a system in place to work through these challenges and hindrances so you can gain peak performance from your most valued resources.  Contact us today for more information on how we can help, and prepare to say good-bye to the stressors of yesterday!
