  • Title: Extension of research into stress factors and their effect on illness absenteeism.
    Author: Seamonds BC.
    Journal: J Occup Med; 1983 Nov; 25(11):821-2. PubMed ID: 6644393.
    Abstract:
    Health evaluation interviews and referrals are proving to be useful tools in managing occupational stressors. As illness absenteeism is reduced, the cost-effectiveness of this new prevention program becomes evident. Health evaluations incorporated as part of the medical examination result in the following benefits: Employees are provided with opportunities to assess their own needs in developing adequate coping skills. Employees are encouraged to take responsibility for managing work and/or personal stressors. Employees are directed to appropriate referral resources. Data are provided regarding occupational stressors, employee behavior and attitudes for the development of a comprehensive career stress management program.
