National Stress Awareness Day: Start living stop stressing

Thursday 4 November is National Stress Awareness Day 2010. This year's theme is 'Start living - stop stressing'. In what are uncertain times for the organisation and the education sector, stress awareness is something that UCL takes very seriously - as demonstrated by the Stress, Resilience and Well-being group (STRAW). STRAW reports to the Health and Safety Management Team and is made up of UCL staff from all levels. Its purpose is to monitor the effectiveness of UCL policy and to make proposals to the Health and Safety Management team to help staff work effectively in times of pressure. They believe that UCL staff and management all have a role to play in reducing stress in the workplace. Angela Graneek (UCL Occupational Health Services and chair of STRAW) explained: 'Cases of work'related stress can be prevented as well as managed.
