Stress in the work place has become a key issue for many companies; however tackling this issue is complex as peoples responses to stress differ enormously.

The Health Bank Account recognises that peoples 'well-being' is key to their capacity to cope with stress in the workplace.

Stress will always have a greater impact on those whose Health is compromised.

Most people are either unaware or not unduly concerned of their lack of commitment to their personal well-being because they are not experiencing or recognising the adverse symptoms of poor health. The Health Bank Account focus's on helping the employee recognise health risks due to unhealthy practices and aids in finding the impetus to make the necessary changes.
