What is work-related stress?

Work-related stress is defined by the HSE as “the adverse reaction people have to excessive pressures or other types of demand placed on them”.

In 2010 according to the workers trade union Unison 1 in 5 workers report having to work harder as a result of job cuts and 1 in 7 are in fear of loosing their jobs.
