Every business owner desires productive and content employees. With a slowdown in the economy and discussions of war, gas prices on the upswing again, the financial crisis and increased layoffs, many Americans may be experiencing high levels of stress.

One of the biggest strains employees currently are dealing with is the ongoing recession. Whether an employee has been personally affected, everyone is feeling some tension from the recession. When asked about the recent financial crisis, almost half of Americans said they are increasingly stressed about their ability to provide for their families basic needs, according to the American Psychological Association’s 2008 Stress in America Survey. The survey reported money as the top source of stress for eight out of 10 Americans.

“…only 32 percent of Americans with disabilities (ages 18 to 64) are working, but two thirds of those unemployed would rather be working… Research shows that remaining employed can actually lead to better health, not to mention improving self-esteem and maintaining social contacts.”

“Intervening when bias, stereotyping or prejudice manifest themselves in the work setting is also an essential element of maintaining a safe environment for all employees. Extreme examples of discrimination, hate crimes and other acts of violence often occur because the environment has allowed other seemingly less harmful forms of bias to become accepted and commonplace.”
