Raising awareness of stress at work in developing countries: advice to employers and worker representatives

Overview

The purpose of this booklet is to raise awareness for employers and worker representatives of work-related stress in developing countries. Work-related stress is an issue of growing concern in developing countries due to important developments in the modern world; two of the most significant being globalisation and the changing nature of work. Raising awareness at an early stage seems all the more important because workrelated stress is also a problem which is far from being resolved in developed and industrialized countries.
