It is also estimated that stress related sick leave costs British industry £3.8 billion every year or approximately 91 million working days. This is half of all days lost.  Depression, Stress, Anxiety, Marital Problems, Alcoholism are just a few of the many reasons employees are absent from the workplace resulting in lower productivity and profits. This growing problem, which is concerning the health authorities, is of course not only debilitating for the individual but also for the organisation concerned. Within the workplace pressure is an accepted factor and helps to keep us motivated. However, excessive pressure can lead to stress, which undermines performance, and leads to increased absenteeism due to stress related illnesses.  Psychological problems manifest themselves in three different ways  » Physical effects include: hypertension, tiredness, erratic sleep patterns, palpitations, sweating, muscular tension and pain, low sex drive, nausea, exhaustion etc. » Emotional effects include: anxiety, depression, worry, irritability, anger, frustration etc. » Behavioural effects include: lack of concentration and memory, inability to focus on a task, withdrawal, social anxiety, low self-esteem, lack of confidence, avoidance, conflict, increased dependence on alcohol, non-recreational and recreational drugs etc. Would it not make perfect sense to decrease these problems and encourage an active and positive employee programme, where external pressures and psychological problems could be addressed and resolved, resulting in fewer absenteeism's and increased workplace productivity.  The Hyde Counselling Practice Corporate Services provides individual therapy and group training courses for organisations.
