INTRODUCTION OF WOR+ STRESS

Stress is a normal physical response to events that make you feel threatened or upset your

balance in some way. When you sense danger – whether it’s real or imagined –the body’s

44defence kick into high gear in a rapid, automatic process known as the “fight or fight reaction

, or the stress response.

Stress is a condition or feeling e!perienced when a person perceives that “demands e!ceed the

personal and social resources the individual is able to mobili"e.

Stress is a part of day#to#day living. $t is a common human phenomenon and part of life as a

college student. %s college students you may e!perience stress meeting academic demands,

ad&usting to a new living environment, or developing friendships. 'he stress you e!perience is

not necessarily harmful. (ild forms of stress can act as a motivator and energies. )owever, if

your stress level is too high, medical and social problems can result. *or e!ample, speaking in

public can be stressful for some people, and not for others.

St44ress is not itself an illness but it can cause serious illness if not tackled. $t is important to

recogni"e the symptoms of stress early.

'his will help you figure out ways of coping and save you from adopting unhealthy coping

methods, such as drinking or smoking.

Spotting the early signs of stress will also help prevent it worsening and potentially causing

serious complications, such as high blood pressure, an!iety and depression. +ead more about the

health complications of stress.

While there is little you can do to prevent stress, there are many things can do to manage stress

more effectively, such as learning how to rela!, taking regular e!ercise and adopting good time

management techniues.

Stress is your body,s way of responding to any kind of demand. $t can be caused by both good

and bad e!periences. When people feel stressed by something going on around them, their bodies

react by releasing chemicals into the blood. 'hese chemicals give people more energy and

strength, which can be a good thing if their stress is caused by physical danger. -ut this can also

be a bad thing, if their stress is in response to something emotional and there is no outlet for this

e!tra energy and strength. 'his class will discuss different causes of stress, how stress affects

you, the difference between good’ or positive’ stress and bad’ or negative’ stress, and some

common facts about how stress affects people today.

Stress has been called “the invisible. $t is a disease that may affect you, your organi"ation, and

any of the people in it, so you cannot afford to ignore it.

De8inition: )ans Selye was one of the founding fathers of stress research. )is view in /012

was that “stress is not necessarily something bad – it all depends on how you take it. 'he stress

of e!hilarating, creative successful work is beneficial, while that of failure, humiliation or

infection is detrimental. Selye believed that the biochemical effects of stress would be

e!perienced irrespective of whether the situation was positive or negative.

Since then, a great deal of further research has been conducted, and ideas have moved on. Stress

is now viewed as a 3bad thing3, with a range of harmful biochemical and long#term effects.

'hese effects have rarely been observed in positive situations.

'he most commonly accepted definition of stress mainly attributed to +ichard S 5a"arus6 is that

"t!e"" i" % -ondition o! 8ee(in& e9*e!ien-ed '$en % *e!"on *e!-eie" t$%t “dem%nd" e9-eed

t$e *e!"on%( %nd "o-i%( !e"ou!-e" t$e indiidu%( i" %b(e to mobi(i;e#” $n short, it7s what we

feel when we think we7ve lost control of events.

'his is the main definition used by this section of (ind 'ools, although we also recogni"e that

there is an intertwined instinctive stress response to une!pected events. 'he stress response

inside us is therefore part instinct and part to do with the way we think.

'he term 3stress3 was first used by the endocrinologist )ans Selye in the /0H>s to identify physiological responses in laboratory animals. )e later broadened and populari"ed the concept toinclude the perceptions and responses of humans trying to adapt to the challenges of everydaylife. $n Selye7s terminology, 3stress3 refers to the reaction of the organism, and 3stressor3 to the perceived threat. Stress in certain circumstances may be e!perienced positively.


8/29

What causes stressI 'here are many different causes of stress, and that which causes stress isalso known as a stressor. 9ommon lifestyle stressors include performance, threat, and bereavement stressors, to name a few. Aerformance stressors are triggered when an individual is placed in a situation where he feels a need to e!cel. 'his could be during performance appraisals,lunch with the boss, or giving a speech. 'hreat stressors are usually when the current situation

poses a dangerous threat, such as an economic downturn, or from an accident. 5astly, bereavement stressors occur when there is a sense of loss such as the death of a loved one, or a pri"ed possession.

'hus, there are various stressors, and even more varied methods and techniues of dealing withstress and turning it to our advantages. $n order to do so, we must learn to tell when we havecrossed the line from positive to negative stress.

Good "t!e"" >" B%d "t!e"":

Stress has often been misunderstood to be negative, with few people acknowledging the

importance and usefulness of positive stress. $n our everyday lives, stress is everywhere anddefinitely unavoidable: hence our emphasis should be on differentiating between what is goodstress, and what is bad. 'his will help us to learn to cope with negative stress, and harness the power of positive stress to help us achieve more.

'here are 4 main categories of stress, namely eustress, distress, hyper stress and hypo stress. @egative stress can cause many physical and psychological problems, whilst positive stress can be very helpful for us. )ere’s how we differentiate between them.

H*o "t!e""

5astly, hypo stress occurs when a person has nothing to do with his time and feels constantly

bored and unmotivated. 'his is due to an insufficient amount of stress: hence some stress isinevitable and helpful to us. 9ompanies should avoid having workers who e!perience hypo stressas this will cause productivity and mindfulness to fall. $f the &ob scope is boring and repetitive, itwould be a good idea to implement some form of &ob rotation so that there is always somethingnew to learn.

'he types of stress are named as eustress and distress. Di"t!e"" is the most commonly#referred to type of stress, having negative implications, whereas eu"t!e"" is a positive form ofstress, usually related to desirable events in person7s life. -oth can be eually ta!ing on the body,and are cumulative in nature, depending on a person7s way of adapting to a change that hascaused it.

Co*in& 'it$ St!e"" %t Wo!? *(%-e

With the rapid advancement of technology, the stresses faced at work have also increased. (any people dread going to work, hence the term “(onday -lues. What is the reason for thisI 'here

is partly the fear from being retrenched in bad times, leading to greater &ob insecurity on the partof those who remain. Gndoubtedly, occupational stress is one of the most commonly citedstressors faced by people all over the world.

Stress refers to the pressure and reactions to our environment which results in psychological and physical reactions. Whilst some stress is good for motivation and increasing efficiency, too muchstress can result in negative impacts such as reduced effectiveness and efficiency. (ore and more people are feeling isolated and disrespected at work, and this has led to greater occupationalstress. (any companies have taken to consulting e!perts and professionals on ways to increaseconnectedness and motivation of their employees.

Some companies organi"e parties and make their employees feel valued at work. 'hese aremeasures to motivate employees and help them to feel secure at their &obs, translating intogreater productivity. )owever, not all companies have such measures in place, and some havenot gotten it uite right. )ence, it is up to you to make sure that you can cope with stress at yourworkplace, and use it to help you work better. )ere are H simple steps to help you with copingwith stress in the workplace.

Ste* @: R%i"in& A'%!ene""

)elp yourself to identify when you are facing rising levels of stress, tipping the scales from positive to negative. 'his is important, as being able to identify signs of being stressed can helpyou to take steps to ensure that your overall uality of life does not drop. $f left unacknowledged,

the problem will only snowball, leading to disastrous conseuences to your health and overallwellbeing.

8ou can identify if you are feeling stressed by checking if you have any physical or psychological reactions, such as e!cessive sweating or heart palpitations, or the onset ofheadaches, irritability or the need to escape. $f you e!perience any of these reactions, identify ifyou are feeling any overwhelming negative emotions, and if you are constantly worried.

Ste* : Identi8 t$e C%u"e

8ou need to be able to analy"e the situation and identify what is causing the rise in stress. 'hesestressors can be e!ternal and internal.

as the environment or your colleagues at work. $nternal stressors refer to your own thinking andattitude. Cften, we only start reacting to stress when a combination of stressors working togethere!ceeds our ability to cope.

Jeep a diary or a list of events that have caused you to feel strong negative emotions, or that arelikely stressors. 'his will help you to identify the causes of your stress. Whilst it is not always possible to eradicate them, we can change the way that we cope with it.


11/29

Ste* 1: Co*in& 'it$ St!e""

$n order to deal with the situation that is causing you stress, you need to calm your mind and body so as to stave off the reactions and cope with it in a positive way. 'his can be throughdifferent methods, such as taking time off. $f a situation is triggering your stress and you areunable to calm down, remove yourself from it. Ko outside and take a walk to calm down.

%lternatively, you can try implementing rela!ation techniues such as deep breathing. $f it is aninternal stressor, stop your thought process until you are able to deal with it logically.

'he key to making these H steps work for you is to practice them. 'hese are not instantaneoussolutions, and you need to condition your mind and practice them so that you can implement itwhen you are feeling stressed.

St!e"" M%n%&ement

Stress management is the need of the hour. )owever hard we try to go beyond a stress

situation, life seems to find new ways of stressing us out and plaguing us with an!iety attacks.

(oreover, be it our an!iety, mind#body e!haustion or our erring attitudes, we tend to overlookcauses of stress and the conditions triggered by those. $n such unsettling moments we often

forget that stressors, if not escapable, are fairly manageable and treatable.

Stress, either uick or constant, can induce risky body#mind disorders. $mmediate disorders such

as di""y spells, an!iety attacks, tension, sleeplessness, nervousness and muscle cramps can all

result in chronic health problems. 'hey may also affect our immune, cardiovascular and nervous

systems and lead individuals to habitual addictions, which are inter#linked with stress.

5ike 3stress reactions3, 3rela!ation responses3 and stress management techniues are

some of the body7s important built#in response systems. %s a rela!ation response the body tries to


12/29

get back balance in its homeostasis. Some hormones released during the 7fight or flight7 situation

prompt the body to replace the lost carbohydrates and fats, and restore the energy level. 'he

knotted nerves, tightened muscles and an e!hausted mind crave for looseness. Gnfortunately,

today, we don7t get rela!ing and soothing situations without asking. 'o be rela!ed we have to

strive to create such situations.

Re-o∋in& % "t!e""o!:

$t is important to recogni"e whether you are under stress or out of it. (any times, even if we are

under the influence of a stressful condition and our body reacts to it internally as well as

e!ternally, we fail to reali"e that we are reacting under stress. 'his also happens when the causes

of stress are there long enough for us to get habituated to them. 'he body constantly tries to tell

us through symptoms such as rapid palpitation, di""y spells, tight muscles or various body aches

that something is wrong. $t is important to remain attentive to such symptoms and to learn to

cope with the situations.

We cope better with stressful situation, when we encounter them voluntarily. $n cases of

relocation, promotion or layoff, adventurous sports or having a baby, we tend to respond

positively under stress. -ut, when we are compelled into such situations against our will or

knowledge, more often than not, we wilt at the face of unknown and imagined threats. *orinstance, stress may mount when one is coerced into undertaking some work against one7s will.

7%u&$te!;

%dopting a humorous view towards life7s situations can take the edge off everyday stressors. @ot

being too serious or in a constant alert mode helps maintain the euanimity of mind and promote

clear thinking. -eing able to laugh stress away is the smartest way to ward off its effects.

% sense of humor also allows us to perceive and appreciate the incongruities of life and provides

moments of delight. 'he emotions we e!perience directly affect our immune system. 'he

positive emotions can create neurochemical changes that buffer the immunosuppressive effects

of stress.

Wo!?*(%-e St!e""

Wo!?*(%-e "t!e"" is the harmful physical and emotional response that occurs when there is a

poor match between &ob demands and the capabilities, resources, or needs of the worker. Stress#related disorders encompass a broad array of conditions, including psychological disorders e.g.,depression, an!iety, post#traumatic stress disorder6 and other types of emotional strain e.g.,dissatisfaction, fatigue, tension, etc.6, maladaptive behaviors e.g., aggression, substance abuse6,and cognitive impairment e.g., concentration and memory problems6. $n turn, these conditionsmay lead to poor work performance or even in&ury. Bob stress is also associated with various biological reactions that may lead ultimately to compromised health, such as cardiovasculardisease.

Stress is a prevalent and costly problem in today7s workplace. %bout one#third of workers reporthigh levels of stress. Cne#uarter of employees view their &obs as the number one stressor intheir lives. 'hree#uarters of employees believe the worker has more on#the#&ob stress than ageneration ago.

Cccupational Safety and )ealth and many other organi"ations, it is widely believed that &obstress increases the risk for development of back and upper#e!tremity musculoskeletal disorders.)igh levels of stress are associated with substantial increases in health service utili"ation.Workers who report e!periencing stress at work also show e!cessive health care utili"ation. $n a/00= study of 42,>>> workers, health care costs were nearly 1>N greater for workers reporting

high levels of stress in comparison to “low risk workers. 'he increment rose to nearly /1>N, anincrease of more than O/,P>> per person annually, for workers reporting high levels of both stressand depression. %dditionally, periods of disability due to &ob stress tend to be much longer thandisability periods for other occupational in&uries and illnesses.

9auses of Workplace Stress

Bob stress results from the interaction of the worker and the conditions of work. Eiews differ onthe importance of worker characteristics versus working conditions as the primary cause of &obstress. 'he differing viewpoints suggest different ways to prevent stress at work. %ccording toone school of thought, differences in individual characteristics such as personality and copingskills are most important in predicting whether certain &ob conditions will result in stress#in other words, what is stressful for one person may not be a problem for someone else. 'his viewpointleads to prevention strategies that focus on workers and ways to help them cope with demanding &ob conditions. %lthough the importance of individual differences cannot be ignored, scientificevidence suggests that certain working conditions are stressful to most people. Such evidenceargues for a greater emphasis on working conditions as the key source of &ob stress, and for &obredesign as a primary prevention strategy. Aersonal interview surveys of working conditions,including conditions recogni"ed as risk factors for &ob stress, were conducted in (ember Statesof the , /001, and D>>>. +esults showed a trend across these periodssuggestive of increasing work intensity. $n /00>, the percentage of workers reporting that theyworked at high speeds at least one#fourth of their working time was 4=N, increasing to 14N in/001 and to 12N in D>>>. Similarly, 1>N of workers reported they work against tight deadlines

at least one#fourth of their working time in /00>, increasing to 12N in /001 and 2> N in D>>>.)owever, no change was noted in the period /001–D>>> data not collected in /00>6 in the percentage of workers reporting sufficient time to complete tasks. % substantial percentage of%mericans work very long hours. -y one estimate, more than D2N of men and more than //N of women worked 1> hours per week or more in D>>>.

Signs of Workplace Stress

(ood and sleep disturbances, upset stomach and headache, and disturbed relationships withfamily: friends and girlfriends or boyfriends are e!amples of stress#related problems. 'he effectsof &ob stress on chronic diseases are more difficult to see because chronic diseases take a longtime to develop and can be influenced by many factors other than stress. @onetheless, evidenceis rapidly accumulating to suggest that stress plays an important role in several types of chronic

they were there, we do not challenge them properly, which means that they can be completely

incorrect and wrong.

'hought %wareness is the process by which you observe your thoughts and become aware of

what is going through your head.

Cne approach to it is to observe your 3stream of consciousness3 as you think about the thing

you7re trying to achieve which is stressful. ?o not suppress any thoughts. $nstead, &ust let them

run their course while you watch them, and write them down on our free worksheet as they

occur. 'hen let them go.

%nother more general approach to 'hought %wareness comes with logging stress in your Stress

?iary. When you analy"e your diary at the end of the period, you should be able to see the most

common and the most damaging thoughts. 'ackle these as a priority using the techniues below.

)ere are some typical negative thoughts you might e!perience when preparing to give a ma&or

presentation;

• *ear about the uality of your performance or of problems that may interfere with it:

• Worry about how the audience especially important people in it like your boss6 or the

press may react to you:

• ?welling on the negative conseuences of a poor performance: or

• Self#criticism over a less#than#perfect rehearsal.

'hought awareness is the first step in the process of managing negative thoughts, as you cannot

manage thoughts that you are unaware of.

+ational 'hinking

'he ne!t step in dealing with negative thinking is to challenge the negative thoughts that you

identified using the 'hought %wareness techniue. 5ook at every thought you wrote down and

challenge it rationally. %sk yourself whether the thought is reasonable. What evidence is there for

and against the thoughtI Would your colleagues and mentors agree or disagree with itI

5ooking at the e!amples, the following challenges could be made to the negative thoughts we

identified earlier;


19/29

• Fee(in&" o8 in%deu%-: )ave you trained yourself as well as you reasonably should

haveI ?o you have the e!perience and resources you need to make the presentationI

)ave you planned, prepared and rehearsed enoughI $f you have done all of these, you7ve

done as much as you can to give a good performance.

• Wo!!ie" %bout *e!8o!m%n-e du!in& !e$e%!"%(: $f some of your practice was less than

perfect, then remind yourself that the purpose of the practice is to identify areas for

improvement, so that these can be sorted out before the performance.

• P!ob(em" 'it$ i""ue" out"ide ou! -ont!o(: )ave you identified the risks of these things

happening, and have you taken steps to reduce the likelihood of them happening or their

impact if they doI What will you do if they occurI %nd what do you need others to do for

youI

• Wo!! %bout ot$e! *eo*(e" !e%-tion": $f you have prepared well, and you do the best

you can, then you should be satisfied. $f you perform as well as you reasonably can, then

fair people are likely to respond well. $f people are not fair, the best thing to do is ignore

their comments and rise above them.

When you challenge negative thoughts rationally, you should be able to see uickly whether the

thoughts are wrong or whether they have some substance to them. Where there is some

substance, take appropriate action. )owever, make sure that your negative thoughts are

genuinely important to achieving your goals, and don7t &ust reflect a lack of e!perience, which

everyone has to go through at some stage.

Aositive 'hinking R Cpportunity Seeking

-y now, you should already be feeling more positive. 'he final step is to prepare rational,

positive thoughts and affirmations to counter any remaining negativity. $t can also be useful to

look at the situation and see if there are any useful opportunities that are offered by it.

-y basing your affirmations on the clear, rational assessments of facts that you made using

+ational 'hinking, you can use them to undo the damage that negative thinking may have done

to your self#confidence.

9ontinuing the e!amples above, positive affirmations might be;


20/29

• P!ob(em" du!in& *!%-ti-e: 3$ have learned from my rehearsals. 'his has put me in a

position where $ can deliver a great performance. $ am going to perform well and en&oy

the event.3

• Wo!!ie" %bout *e!8o!m%n-e: 3$ have prepared well and rehearsed thoroughly. $ am well

positioned to give an e!cellent performance.3

• P!ob(em" i""ue" out"ide ou! -ont!o(: 3$ have thought through everything that might

reasonably happen and have planned how $ can handle all likely contingencies. $ am very

well placed to react fle!ibly to events.3

• Wo!! %bout ot$e! *eo*(e" !e%-tion: 3*air people will react well to a good

performance. $ will rise above any unfair criticism in a mature and professional way.3

$f appropriate, write these affirmations down on your worksheet so that you can use them when

you need them.

%s well as allowing you to structure useful affirmations, part of Aositive 'hinking is to look at

opportunities that the situation might offer to you. $n the e!amples above, successfully

overcoming the situations causing the original negative thinking will open up opportunities. 8ou

will acuire new skills, you will be seen as someone who can handle difficult challenges, and

you may open up new career opportunities.

(ake sure that identifying these opportunities and focusing on them is part of your positive

thinking.
