Stress-related problems cost companies millions of working days each year.

In the current economic climate, many individuals take on increased workloads without speaking out for fear of being stigmatised, judged, or fear their position might be threatened. Such stress reduces productivity and increases absenteeism and management pressures.

As a result, companies may suffer bad publicity, loss of reputation and expensive damage payouts.

On a personal level, the costs of stress are even higher, as it affects the performance of the brain and body. This includes poor concentration and memory, demotivation, fatigue, anxiety, irritability, headaches, muscle and back pain, stomach and sleep problems, anger and depression. Besides impacting home and family life, relationships and socialising, if left unchecked, these symptoms can trigger serious illnesses.

Stress management training is aimed directly towards personal well-being and, more specifically, workplace well-being, by offering powerful solutions to overcome stress-related problems. With fast, effective, proven techniques available to reduce and manage stress, organisations can reap the rewards of a more focused, motivated and successful workforce.
