Stres, gesondheid, afwesighede en ongelukke in organisasies

Abstract

M.A.Health problems, physical and mental, in industry have an enormous influence on productivity of organisations in South Africa. Certain models of stress implied the perspective that many stressors may serve as possible inputs into the system, for example remuneration, substance abuse, teamwork, management support, change and self control. Outputs from the system include aspects such as accidents, illness, low productivity levels and psycho-social problems. The problem is that illness and absenteeism often have unspecific causes and a complex interaction perspective has been developed in looking at the employee as system in his working environment
