Along with musculoskeletal disorders, the HSE statistics show that stress, depression and / or anxiety accounted for the majority of days lost due to work-related ill health in 2021/22. The availability of information and guidance on Stress Awareness and Stress Management techniques is therefore essential in raising awareness on people’s understanding and knowledge around this topical subject.
