Abstract
Stress has existed throughout the evolution. About 4 billion years ago, violent collision of rock and ice along with dust and gas, led to the formation of a new planet. The planet has survived more than 100 million years of meltdown to give birth to microscopic life. Stress in the workplace is not a new phenomenon, but it is a greater threat to employee’s health and well-being than ever before. While technology has made aspects of many jobs easier, it has also added to the anxieties of office life through information overload, heightened pressure for productivity, and a threatening sense of impermanence in the workplace
