I am currently drafting a stress policy for our organisation.
Does anyone have a policy that they would be willing to share and would anyone like a copy of ours when it is finished?
I have had a look at the HSE model policy and have taken some ideas from it, but will be adding quite a bit more.
Also - is anyone doing stress risk assessments?
Cheers
Eric

Posted By David Edward Partington Eric we have had a policy for some time now in Southwark. I am happy to send you a copy plus a copy of a letter that I have written to the HSE in preperation of the fact that the HSE are tugging London authorities on this issue. However, I am not entirley clear why in leafy Chershire you need such a policy. Surely your staff can simply lay back in their hammock and meditate in the calm quiet of leafy Chesire....... Regards David Partington Please send your postal address to me at David.Partington@Southwark.gov.uk

I regret that I'm not in a position to offer you a swap but, after about 17 years' experience of working with employers in diverse industries about stress management, may I suggest that you distinguish between what is involved in stating a policy on stress management and how you implement it.
You can have a valid, clear and simple policy to identify and control levels of stress that is sufficient to serve as guidance for managers and staff of the policy goals.
Implementing this may required different kinds of tools for different kinds of jobs. The tools Deborah Armstrong referred to are valuable but the generic risk assessment principle that risk levels should be compared to industry standards as closely as possible is also useful to bear in mind.
