STRESS MANAGEMENT IN ACCOUNTING & WORKPLACE: CAUSES OF STRESS & EFFECTIVE TECHNIQUES OF STRESS REDUCTION

Stress is a common aspect of human existence. Although it is experienced by humans in a variety of ways and to varying degrees of intensity, it is not tied to any particular culture. Widespread research has shown that stress in the workplace has significant practical and financial repercussions. Increased absenteeism is thought to be correlated with organizational stress. When the demands of the role, your abilities, and the resources and supports available are out of sync, workplace stress can result. Given the strain accountants experience from both employers and clients, accounting can be seen as one of the more stressful professions. People who work in the accounting industry are known for having stressful jobs, especially during the busiest season when tax deadlines are approaching. These high levels of stress result in overburdened, disgruntled workers and businesses with excessive staff turnover. Therefore, stress management is the practice of using intentional measures to reduce one's overall level of stress, especially chronic stress. This paper explains causes, effects of stress and techniques of stress reduction in Accounting and workplace.
