promotional stress balls to help workplace stress

With recent research showing that 828,000 UK workers suffered from work-related stress, depression or anxiety between 2019 and 2020, there's no better time to give some thought to how you can help your staff.

The same data set also found that the impact of those 828,000 workers feeling the burn led to an astonishing 17.9 million working days lost in the UK in the same time period. And of course, that's just for 2019-2020: factor in the impact of Coronavirus on the way we work and live since then, and the likelihood is those figures have increased drastically.

How Could Your Staff Benefit From Promotional Stress Balls?

Stress balls are an effective way of relieving the feeling of stress. When you are under stress, your body tenses. The squeezing of a stress ball can help to release this constriction, resulting in the individual feeling calmer. But why should stress balls be given to workers? Here are a few quick-fire stats to explain...

  • One-in-five UK workers will experience moderate to high levels of work-related stress several times per week.
  • 25% of people experiencing work-related stress struggle to be as productive as they would normally be at work, with 22% feeling disengaged with their work as a result.
  • The most common cause of work-related stress is long working hours, followed by concerns about performance.
  • Sleep loss is the most prevalent impact that stress has on UK adults.
