Stress Awareness Day gives us a chance to 'stress the positives'. 

It is a good prompt for all employers to think about what they can do to prevent work related stress making people ill.

Change can often cause extra stress to employees.

How change is managed and communicated is important in helping to reduce stress in employees.

Information needs to be timely communicated, so employees can understand the reasons for the change, the impact on their jobs, whether training is necessary, the timetable for change and what supports are available to them during the change.

Wednesday provides us all with the opportunity to look at the areas of the workplace that can be improved.
