Job Pressures Taking Toll On Workers

Job-related pressure is really getting to a lot of workers.

A survey conducted by the American Society of Chartered Life Underwriters & Chartered Financial Consultants and the Ethics Officer Association found that 57 percent of more than 1,600 U.S. workers polled report lost sleep or insomnia due to workplace pressure.

Forty-eight percent of the respondents said they had headaches, while 37 percent reported workplace pressure made them depressed.

Thirty-five percent said the pressure had made them gain or lose weight.
