Continuous activity and high job demands surround corporate
environments. These demands are considered to be key triggers for
workers' stress-related symptoms and poor health. It has been
estimated by the American Institute of Stress (AIS) that US$ 300
billion/year are spent on conditions related to excessive stress
levels. Of course, occupational stressors are an unavoidable part
of working life. Experienced stress has helped us to survive for
thousands of years and keeps us vigilant under critical situations.
Of course, too much experienced stress can lead to serious
psychological and physical health problems. This book is devoted to
examining important issues related to coping with and preventing
elevated occupational stress. This book also examines individual
differences and organizational cultures that might exacerbate or
mitigate experienced stress. If we consider all choices available,
it is better to prevent than to treat. Prevention can be primary,
when we prevent the stress-generating situation from occurring;
secondary, when we provide alternatives to minimize the damage
caused by the problem and tertiary, which involves containing
losses that have occurred to prevent them from becoming more
serious. This book on stress prevention and coping with stress is
intended to assist occupational health professionals and academics
to improve their abilities to help employees managing stress, but
it also can be helpful for individual workers as they learn to
better handle stressors at work. The research findings and views
presented by these well-respected leaders in stress research
provide tools for those currently experiencing workplace stress and
supplies information concerning how stress can be prevented before
it occurs.
