ORIGINS
• “The father of stress research” was Dr. Hans Selye. He was also the first person to coin the term “stress” in medical circles in the 1930’s and 40’s.
• He defined stress as “the non-specific response of the body to any demand for change”.
• To him, stress wasn’t necessarily good or bad. It was just a response to changing stimuli around us.

STRESS AT WORK PLACE
• "Workplace stress" is the harmful physical and emotional responses that can happen when there is a conflict between job demands on the employee and the amount of control an employee has over meeting these demands.
• In general, the combination of high demands in a job and a low amount of control over the situation can lead to stress.
• Stress in the workplace can have many origins or come from one single event.
