Tackling work stress

Some general tips:

Talk to someone you trust - at work or outside - about the things that are upsetting you
Use whatever counselling or support is available
Work regular hours and take all the breaks and holidays you're entitled to.
If things get too much, book a day off or a long weekend
Use flexitime, if available, to avoid rush-hour travel or to fit in with childcare needs
Look after yourself through exercise and healthy eating
Tackle addictions to alcohol, smoking or other drugs

Make your work environment comfortable and suited to your needs
Discuss problems with your supervisor or manager, and if difficulties can't be resolved, talk to your personnel department, trade union representative or other relevant members of staff
Treat colleagues with the respect and consideration you'd like from them
Be aware of company policies on harassment, bullying or racism, so you know how to challenge unacceptable behaviour and what back-up there is
