Stress Management

Work-related stress is recognised as being one of the largest causes of sickness absence and high turnover in the workplace, creating many problems for the personnel and organisations involved. In the current economic climate people may find it harder than ever to cope with the uncertainty and pressure and it is important for organisations to take a pro-active approach to stress management - the ability to manage stress in the workplace can make the difference between success and failure for both the individual and the organisation.

OPS can provide stress management expertise and offer the following services, all designed to reduce the negative impact of stress in the workplace:

• Stress audits to identify ‘stress hotspots’ within an organisation, distinguishing between those that are constructively challenging and those that are disadvantageous
• Recommendations for organisational or job restructure to reduce the negative effects of stress
• One-to-one coaching to resolve specific issues and suggest relevant coping mechanisms to manage them
• Stress Management Workshops to raise awareness among teams and individuals of the causes and signs of stress, and to help organisations adjust their working environment to reduce unnecessary stress
• Workshops and training to help employees develop strategies to cope effectively with stress in the workplace

At OPS we utilise and develop different stress management techniques, making every effort to ensure that the services provided are in line with the needs of the individuals and the organisation involved.
