Your Workplace Stress Checklist
Ask yourself the following questions to
understand whether stress has become
an ongoing part of your working life,
and whether it’s time to seek more
support.
Do you feel stressed about work
most days?
Are you finding it harder to switch
off after work or on weekends?
Have you taken more sick days, or
kept working while unwell?
Are you making more mistakes, or
has the quality of your work slipped?
Are you experiencing any of the
symptoms of stress listed above?
Have colleagues or loved ones
commented that you seem stressed?
Are your job demands too high, do
you have enough control over your
work, and are you clear on your role
and responsibilities?
Finally, are you dealing with conflict,
strained relationships or poor
communication at work?
If you answered yes to several of these,
it may be time to talk to your manager
or reach out to Converge.
