Information Session: Work Related Stress

Events 24/05/2013 - 24/05/2013


Work related stress is gaining more prominence in the international and local labour agenda. It is being claimed that it is the second commonest cause of work related health problems after back pain. Studies show that up to 25% of workers across Europe complain of stress at work, while up to 50% to 60% of all working days lost may be due to stress. 

An information session was held on 24 May 2013. The scope of this information session was to:

  • make employers gain a deeper understanding of what is work related stress
  • inform them of recent developments in the EU and locally on the subject
  • provide important tips on how to tackle issues of work related stress 
  • communicate MEA’s position on the proposed framework on work related stress which is being proposed by the OHSA
