Brief description of project<br />

Objectives<br />

District councils in Northern Ireland are working with the <strong>Health</strong><br />

and Safety <strong>Agency</strong> to host a seminar in the workplace during the first<br />

week in May 1999. This seminar is aimed at managers in all business<br />

sectors.<br />

• To raise awareness of business managers as to the prevalence of<br />

stress, the effect it can have on business and the need to proactively<br />

manage stress in the workplace.<br />

• To assist managers to identify the most appropriate methods for<br />

assessing the levels of stress in their business and mechanisms which<br />

can be used to prevent it becoming a problem.<br />

Outcomes: Planned That managers actually return to their workplace and identify<br />

whether stress is a problem and if so, use some of the techniques put<br />

forward to alleviate the problem.<br />

Evaluation<br />

A report will be available after the conference.<br />
