“MANAGING MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES AT THE

WORKPLACE”

Today, many workers are facing greater pressure to meet the demands of modern working life. Psychosocial
risks such as increased competition, higher expectations on performance and longer working hours are
contributing to the workplace becoming an ever more stressful environment. With the pace of work dictated
by instant communications and high levels of global competition, the lines separating work from life are
becoming more and more difficult to identify. In addition, due to the significant changes labour relations and the
current economic recession, workers are experiencing organizational changes and restructuring, reduced work
opportunities, increasing precarious work , the fear of losing their jobs, massive layoffs and unemployment and
decreased financial stability, with serious consequences to their mental health and well-being.

In recent years, there has been growing attention to the impact of psychosocial risks and work-related stress
among researchers, practitioners and policymakers. Work-related stress is now generally acknowledged as
global issue affecting all countries, all professions and all workers both in developed and developing countries.
In this complex context, the workplace is at the same time an important source of psychosocial risks and the
ideal venue to address them in order to protect the health and well-being of workers.
