Stress management refers to the wide
spectrum of techniques and psychotherapies aimed at controlling a person's
levels of stress, especially chronic stress, usually for the
purpose of improving everyday functioning.
Every individual has certain amount of tolerance towards pressure. It can be inescapable, rather acceptable in terms of the achievement of positive results of the organization within the limited span of time. But when it continues too long, it becomes stress – Pressure which is bearable is converted into stress after it exceeds certain limit. Stress may in general be defined as continuous feelings of worry about your work or personal life that prevents you from relaxing. It has also been defined as, “The reactions of individuals to new or threatening factors in their work environments.”
There are situations when the stress leads to negative response. Stress is manifested in many ways, such as, short temperament, panic reactions and irritability. It can be positive or negative. If an employee is going to get a new position which is dynamic and full of challenges, he develops positive stress. Alternatively, there may be situations that are threatening and anxiety-arousing which create negative stress. There are many causes for stress to develop.
One of the causes of stresses at work relating to the tasks an employee handles is the task itself. How it has been proposed or designed, how much time is required to carry out the task and how much time is to be spent on it. At the same time, what his manager expects from him or her in terms of the tasks being assigned. All these factors are related to work and cause stress.
