A guide to the causes of stress, the legal minefield, and the best ways for organizations to improve their workers' quality of life. It examines the option for employees to pursue claims through employment tribunals and rulings that stress-related injuries may count as "disabilities".

Employers have always paid a huge price for "stressed out" employees in terms of absenteeism, labour turnover and low productivity. They have also increasingly faced the challenge of litigation. This is a guide to the causes of stress, the legal minefield, and the best ways for organizations to improve their workers' quality of life. The authors examine: the option for employees to pursue claims through employment tribunals rather than the civil courts; rulings that employers can be vicariously liable when employees suffer harassment or discrimination; rulings that stress-related injuries may count as "disabilities" under the Disability Discrimination Act; and the results of a survey of personal injury solicitors.
