Work related stress is a huge cause for absence at work. Here are the figures in the UK for 2016 according to the Labour Force Survey (LFS) - see full report here.

  • The total number of cases of work related stress, depression or anxiety in 2015/16 was 488,000 cases, a prevalence rate of 1510 per 100,000 workers.
  • The number of new cases was 224,000, an incidence rate of 690 per 100,000 workers. The estimated number and rate have remained broadly flat for more than a decade.
  • The total number of working days lost due to this condition in 2015/16 was 11.7 million days. This equated to an average of 23.9 days lost per case. Working days lost per worker showed a generally downward trend up to around 2009/10; since then the rate has been broadly flat.
  • In 2015/16 stress accounted for 37% of all work related ill health cases and 45% of all working days lost due to ill health.

.30These figures speak for themselves, stress is costing businesses a lot of money. 
I am creating a conversation around this to discover what you are experiencing at work with view to being the change that I've always wanted to see in the workplace because I know that working at a higher level of human capacity and fulfillment is possible. 
​
I'm interested to know:
  • How much stress you are under (from a scale of 0-10 where 10 is the highest)?
  • What is your experience of stress at work? 
  • What do you think could  be some solutions? 
I will be doing a YouTube live Q&A on Wednesday 31 May at 7.30pm GMT  - see below for the recorded video. 

In the mean time send me your questions by commenting below or if that doesn't work, email me on the contact page. 


Here is the live broadcast for creating Kindness @ Work brainstorm
