WORKPLACE STRESS

Vsak izmed nas se slej kot prej sooči s težavami zaradi stresa v delovnem okolju. Le-ta namreč v današnjem času zelo hitro narašča, zato moramo najti način, kako se spoprijeti z njim kot delavec ali kot organizacija. Lahko je neopazen, dokler ni prepozno, zaradi česar lahko resno zbolimo. V diplomskem delu smo najprej opredelili stres, pri čemer smo natančno opisali, kaj stres sploh je. Potem smo opredelili vrste stresa, v nadaljevanju pa smo se posvetili stresu na delovnem mestu. Pri omenjenem poglavju smo opredelili stres v delovnem okolju nasploh, vrsto zaposlitve, stresne življenjske dogodke in ceno stresa v delovnem okolju. V naslednjem poglavju smo obravnavali simptome stresa. Nadaljevali smo s poglavjem zmanjševanja oz. obvladovanja stresa. Zaključni del diplomskega dela pa je sestavljen iz raziskovalnega dela, katerega smo opravili s pomočjo ankete, v kateri je sodelovalo 34 anketirancev. Anketo smo opravljali v mesecu juniju 2014 z zaposlenimi v podjetju X na Dolenjskem. Rezultati ankete so pokazali, da v podjetju vsi delavci ne občutijo negativnega stresa. Stres poskušajo najpogosteje obvladovati v družbi s prijatelji ali družino. Stres v delovnem okolju je najpogosteje prisoten zaradi plače in pri zaposlenih je največkrat prisoten simptom utrujenosti oziroma izčrpanosti.Everyone sooner or later faces the problems of work-related stress.
