A friend of mine, had been promoted over the years, rewarded for her achievements and was a solid employee. During a major corporate transition she was given a new department that needed a lot of help in restructuring. She worked hard through long days, with little progress. And the results were devastating for her health to the point where she had to leave.

What could have been different? Her supervisors should have seen that the new role was unrealistic for one person to handle. They should have noticed the excessive overtime. They should have spotted the impact it was having on her health. And they should have worked with her before she felt that she had no choice but to leave, or feel like a failure.

We know that engaged employees help our companies to be more creative, productive and successful. Disengaged or stressed out employees cost our companies in job turnover, disability and lowered productivity. Yet, some employers still look at their employees as being a commodity.

Ensuring that your teams work in a healthy environment is a priority.
