Two Day Course
Work-related stress is a major cause of occupational ill health. That means sickness absence, high staff turnover and poor performance in your organisation.

Organisations need to be seen to be identifying problem areas, identifying and evaluating risks and then looking for solutions. They must have a procedure in place for communication, feedback and handling concerns in order to develop a solution, which must then be effectively monitored and evaluated.

Aims
This course is aimed at anyone with responsibility for managing work-related stress in the organisation, for example Human Resource managers, Health and Safety officers, Trade Union representatives, managers, supervisors and team leaders.

The information given on this course can help delegates meet their legal duties and will provide them with practical information, advice and tools on how to assess the risks from work-related stress in the organisation.

The management of stress on an individual level is also looked at, with the aim of heightening awareness of delegates’ personal stressors and affording them the potential to recognise it in their team members. They will also gain ideas on how to handle this stress.
