Stress Awareness Day and support available

This week marked Stress Awareness Day (6 November) - a reminder to us all to prioritise mental health, reduce stressors and seek support when needed.

Stress is how we react when we feel under pressure or threatened. It usually happens when we are in a situation that we don't feel we can manage or control.

Sometimes, a small amount of stress can help us to complete tasks and feel more energised. But stress can become a problem when it lasts for a long time or is very intense. In some cases, stress can affect our physical and mental health.

You can find support with stress, depression and anxiety on the My Wellbeing pages of our website, available at any time on your own device at: https://www.glasgowlife.org.uk/about-us/colleague-information/my-wellbeing

Here you will also find details of PAM Assist, our Employee Assistance provider, available 24/7 for free to help you with any aspect of your wellbeing.
