Stress
If you’re feeling stressed, you’re not alone. I recently presented at the Academy of Business in Society (ABIS) colloquium in Berlin on our AMS research on multi-level resilience. One of the ten factors in the Randstad Future Resilience Index that we have developed is ‘wellbeing orientation’, where we ask about workplace stress. Our pilot of the Index already reveals this as a red flag. Companies are aware of the problem but seem unwilling or unable to tackle it effectively. It requires addressing root causes, like business cultures that value economic growth, financial returns and customer focus above employee wellbeing.
