Focusing on stress management and stress risk assessment
Work conducted with: A central Government Department
In 2007 and 2008, Affinity Health at Work were asked to undertake a programme of work for a unit within the department to assess the particular stressors experienced by employees and equip individuals, their managers and the wider organisation with the tools to prevent and reduce these stressors. This work included:
- Distribution of the HSE Management Standards Questionnaire to understand the key stressors
- Qualitative research to understand both the causes of the stressors and the proposed solutions
- Development of a report with recommendations on reducing the stressors themselves and the impact of those stressors
- Development and roll-out of bespoke half day stress management programmes for employees
- Development and roll-out of bespoke half day stress management programmes for managers to equip them with the tools to prevent and reduce stress in their employees
This work has continued in 2009 with stress management coaching for individuals to help them to identify the key causes of stress and establish how best to deal with them.
