First, the numbers.
Workplace stress is pervasive. Anyone with a pulse, a pursuit, and a paycheck can tell you that.
But how bad is it really? That might come as a surprise.
A staggering 83% of US workers experience pervasive workplace stress, with a quarter ranking their job as the number one source of stress in their lives.
The repercussions are legion and costly. Depression-induced absenteeism alone costs US businesses a massive $51B annually.
These statistics underscore the urgent need for employers to address the well-being of their employees.
