The Nature of Stress: a Case Study

Abstract

In recent years the problems of stress in organisations has become widely discussed and a number of approaches for helping, or “managing” stress have been suggested. Many of the methods have been aimed at organizational wide activities which are assumed to be good for all in the battle against stress. So, for example, we have prescriptions for more participation in decision making; for reducing work overload, and for clarifying job definitions and expectations.
