Stress stress and more stress

[lastlid]

lastlid, surely you don't think me stupid enough not to appreciate the concept of Health and Safety at work, and the obvious benefits and good sense of having the necessary codes of practice in place....and in use.

As with a lot of things in life, it's a matter of degree.

I agree. But the difference between you and me and others is where the cutoff point is. I think that making people ill at work because the employer wants to maximise profit sooo much that they can't employ another person to share the workload, is not on and people need to be protected against that - or any other corner cutting by the employer that puts people at risk.

Well what can i say but STRESS, the more work you do the more they expect, no dinner just do that and you cannot say no, when there is no one in the office and you are short of staff, what can be done,it seems to me the reason we are short of staff, i e sick is because these people seem to have a top up from the goverment so why work 5 days a week when you work 4 or less and you get tax credits, what can i say, roll on when i am 60, plus anyone want a job, class 1 drawbar experiance requied,
