Employee Wellness: Managing Stress
Hours: 0.25
Stress is part of everyone’s life. That’s not necessarily a bad thing. A certain level of stress is healthy because it motivates you to be productive. However, too much stress can do the opposite, leaving you feeling drained and irritable. You can’t escape stress, but you can learn to respond to it differently.
The goal of this course is to teach employees how to identify triggers and develop a personal stress management plan.
