Workplace Stress

It seems that a combination of long hours, stressful work and a competitive work cultures are contributing to increasing cases of depression in the workplace, particularly in the fields of law and accounting, as we’ve just heard.

Do you work somewhere where long hours are worn as a ‘badge of honour?’

I’d love to hear from you – is it something that gets you down, or is something that comes with the territory and you just learn to cope with and maybe even learn to enjoy?

Maybe working long hours is just the ‘done thing’ and you have to do it in order to get a promotion.

Has a stressful working environment caused you to change jobs…. or even professions?

Or maybe your job even led you to develop depression – if that’s you, call me now, I want to hear what steps it forced you to take, and what changes it caused you to make in life.
