Feeling frazzled? This is the UK’s most stressful industry to work in
If you’re feeling the stress at work, you’re not alone.
YouGov research found that half of workers in Britain (52%) reported feeling ‘very’ or ‘fairly’ stressed at work, and 39% noted that they experienced stress when thinking about work outside of work hours.
But spare a thought for those who work in health and social work, as it’s been ranked the most stressful industry to work in.
New research analysed HSE data to assess the number of stress-related illnesses causes or worsened by employment, per 100,000 workers between March 2022 and March 2023.
