The negative impact of stress on staff

Written by Skillwork | Oct 25, 2020 2:57:40 PM

As a company, your people are your most valuable asset.

It’s easy to forget when the challenges are never-ending, there aren’t enough workers to get jobs done on time, clients are frustrated, and you feel the financial pressure on top of it all.

However, it’s vital to manage the stress of your current staff. When a company is chronically understaffed, it erodes morale, increases turnover, destroys workplace culture, and makes meeting deadlines next to impossible. Not only that, but errors and work-related injuries and health issues pile up as well.

If you’re feeling these stressors in your company, know that there is a way out.

Start by treating your staffing as a strategy and plan for both short and long term solutions. When you think strategically, you can anticipate staffing needs and challenges before they occur.
