Five Types Of Job Stress
Dr. Richard Chang, author of The Passion Plan at Work: Building a Passion-Driven Organization, has identified five types of job-induced stress, along with some steps managers can take: 1. Role-related stress. Eliminate role ambiguity and conflict by clearly defining job responsibilities; how they should be handled, how they contribute to the organization, and how they relate to those of others in the organization. 2. Departmental-positioning stress. Improve departmental standing in terms of priority within the organization to favorably impact participation levels, the support received and success. 3. Direction-based stress. Improve personal direction and feedback received from superiors, recognizing individual efforts, resolving conflicting priorities, coaching and supporting each employee's preferences relating to job satisfaction (passion) and career opportunities. 4. Control-related stress. Increase the degree of personal influence experienced in completing regular tasks in such as areas as timing, quality, decision-making authority and planning or preparing for future activities 5. Coordination-related stress. Increase business communication and management skills to better schedule and organize activities, maintain personal contact with employees and other associates, and generate support and interest in projects and programs.
