Abstract :

Stress and stress management are directly related to personal well-being and specifically to workplace well-being. Managing stress is all about taking charge: of the thoughts, emotions, schedule, and the way we deal with problems. Stress in the workplace reduces productivity, increases management pressures, and makes people ill in many ways, evidence of which is still increasing. Workplace stress affects the performance of the ain, including functions of work performance, memory, concentration, and learning. This paper tries to explore various stress management techniques which would enhance the personal and workplace well-being of individuals. These tips would not certainly change the situation causing the stress, but they will, more importantly, enable to change the reactions and relationships to the stressful situations.
