Stress busting for working parents – empower your most valuable asset

Stress busting for working parents


Working parents: greater stress than non-parents

An average of 30.6 working days are lost, per company, through stress, depression or anxiety - the largest contributor to the overall estimated annual days lost from work-related ill-health in 2007/8.Source: Health & Safety Executive

Each year business pays for 8 days absenteeism at an average of £666 per employee.Source: CIPD Absence Management Survey, 2008



Self reported work-related stress, depression or anxiety account for an estimated 10.5 million reported lost working days per year in Britain

One in five workers reports feeling extremely stressed at work. This equates to 5 million in the UK

Stress is likely to become the most dangerous risk to business in the early part of the 21st century

Only 33% of workers say that their employer has any family-friendly practices or personal support services in place

Working parents are likely to have more complex issues to give them stress

Are the children at school and how are they behaving?

What friends are they making and where are they spending their time?

What else do I need to do as a parent and partner?

Am I looking after my own health and well-being?

Do I balance my time between my work, life, children and partner?
