As a result of a sociological survey conducted by the American Psychological Association, it turned out that more than half of the respondents (54%) are sure that they receive insufficient remuneration for their work, given their contribution to the company. 61% said they were dissatisfied with a lack of career growth. At the same time, women more often than men experienced certain difficulties at work.
32% of women said that the employer does not appreciate their dedicated work and does not allow them to develop in the professional field. Experts warn - a similar situation provokes an increased level of stress. There are actually two reasons: firstly, self-esteem decreases, and secondly, the global economic crisis forces families to rely on their wife’s salary.
As a result, it turns out that there is no way out of this situation - a real vicious circle. According to the author of the book “Does Stress Kill You?” Doctor's recommendations on how to defeat work stress ”David Posen, constant stress affects labor productivity, and for the worse. A person is unable to think soberly and make decisions.
Problems grow like a snowball. Missed working days and the cost of medical personnel are steadily increasing, staff turnover is noted. According to statistics, companies lose $ 300 billion annually precisely because of stress. In fairness, it should be noted that some companies are trying to reduce the stress level of their employees.
If we talk about women, then they usually remain alone with their grievances. Psychologists believe that their inability to protect themselves leads to headaches, panic attacks and tachycardia. Particularly affected are women who have to work in a men's team, where no one takes their maternal responsibilities seriously.
