  5. Health & Safety Executive (HSE) Stress Management Standards Demands The demands of people's jobs (relating to workload, work patterns, working environment) Support The support provided by the organisation, line management and colleagues Role The extent to which people understand their role in the organisation and do not have conflicting roles Control How much control (or how much say) people have in the way they do their work Relationships Relationships at work Change How organisational change is managed and communicated

  15. The Change Curve Action Conviction Employees understand the change and are reaching their own conclusions with respect to the necessity and feasibility of the change and the effect upon them. Comprehension Employees understand the desired environment and have a more detailed understanding about how the organisation intends to reach its goals. They will be concerned about how the change is likely to affect them. Awareness Employees starting to become aware of what changes are needed, where EDF Energy want to be, and how to get there. Unaware Employees have a sense that something needs to be done but not what, how or why. Time

  18. Stress and resilience management training aims to help managers • gain more clarity about what stress is and their ability to recognise the signs of stress/low resilience • take stress out of a difficult situation, helping to empower an employee to solve a problem rather than blame them • open a conversation with someone who may be showing stress signs • know when to refer an employee or themselves to OH or the ESP and how to make a referral • increase their own resilience and coping mechanisms

  19. Resilience • Absorbs the pressures • Lessens wear and tear • Preserves well-being and energy

  20. Resilience Index and Resilience Enhancement Programme • Simple to use – can be completed in a few minutes • Shows employees:- • where they are on the pressure/performance curve • the strength of their 5 key resilience building blocks, colour coded green, orange and red for easy interpretation • leads directly into the 5 self development modules
