Description
Employers have always paid a huge price for "stressed out" employees in terms of absenteeism, labour turnover and low productivity. They have also increasingly faced the challenge of litigation. This is a guide to the causes of stress, the legal minefield, and the best ways for organizations to improve their workers' quality of life. The authors examine: the option for employees to pursue claims through employment tribunals rather than the civil courts; rulings that employers can be vicariously liable when employees suffer harassment or discrimination; rulings that stress-related injuries may count as "disabilities" under the Disability Discrimination Act; and the results of a survey of personal injury solicitors.
