| description | "Health and safety legislation requires that employers regularly conduct risk assessments to identify what in their workplace is a potential hazard to (ie. could harm) employee health. The idea of risk assessment for physical hazards is well-established. More recently attention has focused on the assessment of risk from psychosocial hazards and in doing so measures have been developed or adopted from research to assess the prevalence of workplace stressors. Whilst much research has been done on stress, there exists no systematic overview of the different types of stressor measures available in the UK, nor is there any consistently recorded information about their relative merits. This report and the work it describes were funded by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE). Its contents, including any opinions and/or conclusions expressed, are those of the authors alone and do not necessarily reflect HSE policy." |
