Psychological effects of stress from restructuring and reorganization. Assessment, intervention, and prevention strategies.
1. Demands from the economy, market competition, and the political arena have led to restructuring, reorganization, and change in the workplace. 2. Work behaviors indicative of stress are costly to organizations. 3. Strategies for intervention and prevention should be directed at both managers and workers and can result in cost savings for the organizations. 4. A collaborative approach in which occupational health nurses work with other services inside the organization, and with community organizations and services outside the organization, is important.
