Increasingly, in the business world, we are witnessing the trend of distressed employees. A study compiled puts down a figure of US$ 210 billion that was spent on medical bills, costing American business that much amount each year. More than employees with chronic physical ailments, it is those that are suffering from depression, who are five times more likely to cause work- related under- productivity. An article in the International Journal of Human Resource Management delves in to details on this. One area by which these people can be helped, is through building resilience in them. Thus, specific corporate training workshops need to be arranged towards resilience. A number of stress- suffering workers, seek help through online tools, not always with great success.
