Job Stress Quiz

Find out your level of stress at work

This Job Stress Quiz has no right or wrong answers; it simply indicates an approximate level of stress you experience at your workplace.

Not all stress is harmful, and even negative stress (distress) doesn't affect everyone the same way. Where you may answer with a #2 to one of the questions in this Stress Quiz, a co-worker with the same job responsibilities may answer with a #8.

The reaction to stressors varies greatly from one individual to another. It is helpful to find out what your overall job stress level is and what situations or conditions cause the most distress. To find out some eye-opening facts regarding job stress, click on this Workplace Stress link.

Implementing a Chair Massage Workplace Wellness Program can help reduce the symptoms of job stress. The positive effects of massage are well documented and accepted but workplace massage in particular provides relief of muscle tension when it's most needed.
