According to the WHO, stress is defined as a state of anxiety or psychological tension resulting from demanding circumstances. It is a physical human response that motivates us to face and cope with difficulties and challenges in our lives. Stress is a universal experience, but how we manage and react to it has a significant impact on our overall well-being. Work stress refers to adverse physical and emotional reactions that occur when the demands of a job are not in alignment with the employee’s abilities, resources or preferences. Work stress is often associated with specific factors that create demanding environments for workers. Common workplace stressors include inadequate wages, burdensome workloads, limited opportunities for professional growth or development, unattractive or unchallenging tasks and lack of social support. In addition, stress can arise when individuals perceive a lack of control over work-related decisions or face conflicting demands and unclear performance expectations. These factors collectively contribute to a difficult work atmosphere, potentially leading to increased levels of stress among employees. These conditions can hinder productivity, negatively affecting both behavior and quality of work, and can lead to burnout, which is characterized by physical and emotional exhaustion. Work stress can also cause emotional changes such as a sense of withdrawal, reduced motivation and motivation, reduced self-confidence and increased emotional reactions, sensitivity or aggression. These changes collectively reflect the emotional impact that individuals may experience, affecting their overall psychological wellbeing. A positive work culture thrives when employees effectively manage stress. This reduces absenteeism and attracts prospective employees seeking a low-stress environment. Prioritizing employee well-being through stress management programs shows genuine care for employees’ happiness and health.
