Dear Udhav
Am working in a automobile manufacturing company "Honda" brand..
i just need general comments on the said topic because many managers and business owners mistakenly fear that reducing employee stress requires reducing productivity or creating a "country club" atmosphere, which in today's marketplace could be fatal. Nothing could be further from the truth; in fact, the opposite is true.
thanks

Hi,
Thanks for the details.
In generalized terms, it is the employee's attitude and behavior to respond to the organizational culture. The awareness about facts and policies would make employee more comfortable with the organization to work to.
Even there are certain areas where you can focus such as Setting KPIs, motivation and awareness programmes, various techniques to reduce the stress such as providing recreation facilities, individual consulting, etc.
Please mail me to discuss about particular case, if any.
With Regards,

Hi Samina,
Employee performance may impact employee stress, or otherwise, or still may not even have a bearing on each other.
For instance, good, bad or consistent performance may not really be a reason for employee stress. The stress may be due to some other unrelated reason.
It may be appropriate to deal with them separately and appropriately.
For performance enhancement, a variety of initiatives can be undertaken as we know such as :
1. Clarity of reporting relationships with no ambiguities
2. Clear job description
3. Job enrichment and enlargement
4. Motivational discourses
5. Effective and periodic counselling
6. Time-off training
7. Staff welfare initiatives
8. Productivity linked creative exercises
9. Proper span of control (for supervisors/superiors)
10.Proper delegation of responsibility and accountability
11.Commensurate decision making authority and problem-solving
situation/aids
12.Respect for individuals
13.Effective and objective appraisals and reward mechanism
14.Conducive working conditions and work environment.
15.Work destressors
For stress, the most important thing would be to identify stress creators or the reasons for stress to employees. Corrective or preventive action can be initiated on the basis of the reasons contributing to stress.
Thus, de-stressors could be :
1. Meditation/Yoga/Gymnasium workouts
2. Time offs/work breaks
3. Exercises/Trekking, etc.
4. Corrective postures
5. Recreations - staff/family get-togethers
6. Sabbiticals
7. Corrective policies/systems/processes
8. Improved working conditions
9. Laughter sessions/jokes
10.Improved boss-subordinate relationship building/mending
11.Training sessions, etc.
