Wellness – How to Mitigate Stress Picture This

This image shows a stressed worker, overwhelmed and physically fatigued at her desk — a common sign of workplace stress. Chronic stress can lead to serious issues like burnout, reduced productivity, absenteeism, and long-term health problems. To mitigate stress, workers and employers must adopt preventive and supportive strategies.

Key actions include promoting regular breaks, managing workloads fairly, and encouraging open communication about challenges. Employers should foster a positive environment where mental health is supported and resources such as counseling or stress management training are available. On a personal level, workers can benefit from mindfulness techniques, prioritizing sleep, exercise, and hydration. Identifying stress early and taking proactive steps not only improves morale but also prevents accidents and supports overall workplace wellness.
