Workplace stress - what you can do about it today

These are crazy times  - most office staff are interrupted seven times an hour, taking maybe twenty minutes to re-focus each time. The amount of the day when they can really concentrate deeply on their job is getting smaller every year, and over two hours of each day are lost altogether to distraction.

Other common causes of stress include bullying, overwork with lack of managerial support, poor working culture and environment, plus of course external problems with relationships, finances, housing, children and so on.
