Book Description
Work is a common term which is applied for all sorts of occupation. It is a basic condition for most people and is an important component of the atmosphere for human survival. It is also a major element for the development of the individual as well as the economy of the nation. Many adults spend half of their lives in work related activities. It is natural to experience work related stress on tension or strain in the body or the mind if there is no release or outlet for the bent-up feelings. A phrase 'stress collapses everything' has a prominent place in the minds of millions. It is a silent killer in the modern age. The word 'stress' is dened by the Oxford Dictionary as “a state (situation or position) of affairs involving demand on physical or mental energy”. In medical parlance (manner of speaking) 'stress' is dened as a perturbation of the body's homeostasis. Extreme (Severe) stress conditions are detrimental (disadvantages) to human health. But in moderation stress is normal and in many cases, proves useful. Stress can be good or bad. Stress can be classied into two – Eustress and distress (suffering, pain, sorrow). Eustress is the pleasurable stress that accompanies possible events. Distress is the unpleasant stress that accompanies negative events.
