Preferred term
stress at work
Definition
- Stress is an experience that disrupts a person's emotional and physical state, such as having too much work that causes someone to become overtired or getting into an argument with a coworker that results in anger. Life itself is inherently stressful, so it should be no surprise that stress is an integral part of the work-place, and in fact a great deal of a person's stress comes from work.
