in their lives (39%), followed by family (30%). Other sources include health (10%), concern about the
economy (9%) and concern about international conflict and terrorism (4%)."

level that was making them ill." As a result of "work-related stress, depression or anxiety," there are "an
estimated thirteen and a half million reported lost working days per year in Britain."

Safety and Health at Work, "work-related stress has been shown to affect millions of European workers
across all types of employment sectors." One survey revealed that there are "about 41 million workers
affected by work-related stress each year."
