SUGGESTIONS
1. Credibility- Credibility is what makes others trust and rely on you at a workplace.
Credibility is not something that is handed out at work but is rather built carefully. To
gain credibility, polish your credentials, skills and competence levels. Work towards
building a successful track record with the timely and effective management of
projects, tasks or assignments. Credibility and success at work is based on what
peers and experts think of you at work.
3. Transactional Games
Psychological 'games' played at work are often a series of repeated transactions. The
game may make sense at some superficial level, but in the end, it's typically about
strengthening someone else's psychological position or avoidance. For example,
"Passing the Buck" often occurs in organizations that pass important decisions on up
to different hierarchical levels of management. Another example is "The Blame
Game," an attempt to shift responsibility from one person or group to another.
1. Careful hiring
A key strategy to avoid employee relations problems is to make sure the organization's
hiring process embodies good interviewing skills and selection procedures and pre-
employment screening, including a background investigation.
Just as the requisite experience and education are key in hiring, so are demeanor and
communication style, suggest whether a job candidate would be a "good fit" for the
organization.
Most workplace litigation arises because individuals feel they were not taken seriously or
did not receive a fair hearing. HR should review disciplinary policies and procedures to
ensure there is a fair process that protects employees from impulsive or ill-considered
reactions by management. Employees are more likely to view a dispute-resolution system as
fair and equitable if it allows them to correct problematic behaviour before termination is
considered. This perception of fairness can also help minimize emotions and disruptions by
other employees when a co-worker must be terminated.
2. Get some support - Accepting help from trusted friends and family members can
improve your ability to manage stress. Your employer may also have stress
management resources available through an employee assistance program
(EAP), including online information, available counselling and referral to mental
health professionals, if needed. If you continue to feel overwhelmed by work
stress, you may want to talk to a psychologist, who can help you better manage
stress and change unhealthy behaviour.
3. Exercise- Exercise increases overall health and sense of well-being, which puts
more pep in every day steps. Regular exercise can increase self-confidence and it
can lower the symptoms associated with mild depression and anxiety. Exercise
can also improve sleep, which is often disrupted by stress, depression and
anxiety.
