As one in seven people contend with stress in the workplace, the World Health Organisation has issued new guidelines to help employers support struggling staff.
The guidelines also suggest employers should make adjustments for workers with mental health conditions and psychosocial disabilities, as well as offering support for those returning to work after mental health-related absences.Lauren-Daisy Jones, 29, has welcomed the news. She was forced to leave her dream job as a flight attendant last year after suffering fatigue and depression linked to workload and lack of support from her bosses.
"My hair was falling out and I just thought, this is enough if I don't leave now I'm going to make myself extremely unwell." "You know when you've lost someone, or you want to go and support your family and be there for them, that you can't do," she said."You need to put on a smile and brave face and deal with hundreds of people a day in a metal tube in the sky, where you've got no escape."Bex Spiller also left her job due to burnout.
"We're getting management saying to us 'well, you know, we've got a meditation, we do pizza parties' and I'm saying 'okay, well, how's their workload? What's the culture like, do they feel connected or are they isolated?'
