Plant employees face a
stress double whammy. They suffer from on-the-job causes
as well as those that come from home, like family,
financial, legal or substance abuse problems. While many
people define a stress-free environment as one in which
nothing ever gets done, too much stress is bad for
business, worker health and productivity.

A: Employee burnout
B: Diminished health
C: Poor performance
D: Increased incidents of injuries and ergonomic-
related ailments
E: All of the above |
