The Advisory, Conciliation and Arbitration Service (Acas) has issued advice for employers on managing stress, which includes tips on how to spot the signs of stress and how to create a working environment where staff can openly talk about it.
The new guidance comes after a YouGov survey commissioned by Acas revealed that a third of British workers (33 per cent) believe their organisation is not effective at managing work-related stress.
Acas advice for employers on managing stress at work includes:
- Look out for any signs of stress among staff;
- Be approachable and available, and have informal chats with staff who are feeling stressed;
- Respect confidentiality and be sensitive and supportive when talking to staff about work-related stress; and
- Communicate any internal and external help available to staff, such as financial advice if the cost of living is a cause of stress.
