Research on How Organizations can Effectively Reduce Occupational Stress and Burnout in the Long Term
Abstract
Occupational stress has become a rising problem in today’s job industries. Some jobs accumulate less stress than others and some accumulate more, however, almost every single employee in this decade has suffered at least some form of occupational stress in their career. Many researchers have been trying to study and resolve the trending problems. However, due to a lack of complete summarization and guide to counteracting the problem, many organizations and companies still struggle to provide a healthy working environment for their employees. This research will fill in the gap and accurately give the readers a complete summarization of strategies to reduce occupational stress and eliminate organizational ineffectiveness. In detail, this study will offer summarizations of topics of strategies to regulate employees’ well-being; how to take care of individuals’ mental health; how to spot occupational stress among employees; ways to spot organizational ineffectiveness within a group or company; past, well-known events that significantly increased employees’ occupational stress; and lastly how existing companies take care of their employees.
