In the workplace, encourage employees to take short breaks during the workday, such as going outside for a five-minute walk, or encourage them to use paid time off (PTO).
If you have employee assistance programs (EAPs), or stress management resources included in your workplace benefits plan, highlight their value. You can increase awareness about resources that are available to your team by regularly including information about these programs in staff newsletters, team meetings, and through digital workplace platforms.
Organizing dedicated workshops or informational sessions about the benefits and usages of EAPs can also demonstrate their importance and encourage employees to take advantage of these resources.
When everyone in the workplace understands how stress can impact our lives and the ways that we can manage it, the burden feels lighter. Whether you’re an employee or a supervisor, there are strategies that we can all try to help ease the pressure and create a better workplace environment.
