Stress is where an imbalance exists between the demands of the work and the ability of the employee to cope with those demands. Stress leads to a range of effects on health and may lead to significant time away from work. The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 (as amended) requires that a suitable and sufficient assessment of risk is carried out to reduce the risk to the health and safety of empoyees.
