It is not a secret that our home should be a healthy place where we can relax and leave all the stress behind us. But, what about our work place?
Most people believe that it doesn’t matter how toxic the workplace can be as long as you don’t spend your whole day there, and as long as you can get to go home afterwards where you can rest your head, but it turned out that it is as important as anywhere else, maybe even more, and that’s because a toxic work environment can make a very bad impact on your health.
So, it is very important to feel comfortable and happy where you work and with your co-workers.
#1 – Your workload in unrealistic
If you find yourself constantly in trouble to complete your daily and weekly tasks, despite your hard efforts, then you may be working in an unrealistic workload. Dealing with these situations can lead to anxiety and depression, and in the long-term, you will start experiencing many burnouts, high level of turnover, and low morale.
According to many psychotherapists, you have to schedule time off when you can relax and take a break in order to engage in calming practices. Keep in mind that all of those mental disorders could actually affect your health very negatively.
#2 – You are expected to work more than 8 hours
The only acceptable case is if the essential for your profession is to work more than eight hours, but if you work eight hours, then it shouldn’t be expected from you to come in early or stay late.
According to experts, people who work long hours over an extended period of time are more like to experience depression. So in order to help yourself, you have to add self-care to your priorities.
