Work-related stress affects around 20% of the UK’s workforce and is the biggest cause of absenteeism, costing businesses an estimated 12.8 million working days in 2004/5 and presenting serious emotional and physical health risks to employees. RSK’s risk assessment approach helps you pre-empt issues before they emerge and deal with them if they exist, improving your business and safety performance and reducing your liability to reputation-damaging lawsuits.
