 INTRODUCTION

One of the most common work-related problems today is work-related stress. The
most immediate consequence of occupational stress at work is the increase of errors
in the execution of tasks.

Attention deficit is produced, which leads to a drop in performance and a decrease in

motivation levels. Another symptom of occupational stress in the worker is the so-
called Burnout.

The syndrome is detected in 7.5% of people before 5 years of professional or labor

exercise, and in 25% before 10 years of performance, becoming a public health
problem.
Job stress is a consequence of different situations that occur in our day-to-day work
and of different factors that affect our mental and physical health.

We talk about work stress when there is a discrepancy between work demands and
the worker's resources to cope with them. The problem is that our body has limited
resources, causing the worker a state of physical and mental exhaustion. This poses
a serious threat to the worker's health and well-being, affecting his or her family and
emotional relationships. Among the many causes of work-related stress, we are
going to list the most common and most directly related to this problem.

Some causes of job stress could be mentioned:

Economic expectations, insufficient salary.

Pressure from the employer, mobbing or harassment at work.

Highly responsible activities

The contradictory functions of the worker

Poor motivation

Lack of incentives

Conflicts between employees or employers

Excessive workloads

Exposure to constant physical risks

Excessive working hours

Accelerated work pace

Worries about dismissal

Lack of possibilities to reconcile work and personal life

The time factor: In many cases it is also the case that tasks need to be completed in
record time. Sometimes because we are not well organized and time is running out,
and other times because they are urgent and immediate tasks that we must have for
our bosses as soon as possible.
 CONCLUSION

It is known that many of us work out of necessity that is why we do not mind the bad
treatment by our bosses, or the large amount of work they put us to do and for that
same frustration when we get home with whom we take it out is not with our boss,
but with our family, they are the ones with whom we mostly unburden ourselves and
take out all the stress we carry on, we must remember that we also have rights
inside and outside the company, we must always seek our best place to carry out all
the skills we have as a worker.
