When the individual is in this 'always on the go' state, the over-stressed brain does not function properly. Chronic stress causes overly emotional thinking, which can be defensive than constructive. Problem solving and crativity go out of the window, as do relationships, and of course, performance. Sickness due to mental health is now seen as being the top reason for absence.  

 

Unum UK (employee benefits provider) states that 48% of employers say the leading cause of staff absence is due to poor mental health.  

 

The CIPD also reported that stress-related absence affected a staggering 76% of respondents in their survey on illness. 

 

Not only are incidences growing, but stress-related absences are for longer periods of time than for colds and flu. 

 

It's getting worse and needs attention, not just tick-box lip-service. There is another way. 

 

We are all vulnerable to chronic stress (the kind that doesn't go away) in our busy workplaces. This also leads to sub-optimal behaviour, decision-making, lack of creativity and balance. We can start to improve general health via de-stressing techniques (the stress hormone cortisol deactivates the immune system) 

 

Picture an environment where employees see the world in a more positive way, are more creative, empathetic to team-mates, making decisions without procrastination, and choosing their responses better in potentially inflammatory situations.
