The consequences of stress at work, regarding employees’ health status.

Employees are often faced with stress at work, and several workers are absent from work because of job stress. One third of British workers absent from work are absent because of the consequences of job stress. However, what are the effects of job stress on human health status? Many studies have been done about these effects, including mental and physical health issues like coronary heart disease and depression. This study includes a literature review of previous studies concerning the effects of job stress on health and also discusses several findings of those studies. Furthermore, it provides an empirical analysis of the association between job stress and mental health and general health status. It also compares the outcomes of this analysis with the findings of the existing literature on the subject.
