Question

In the workplace today, more emphasis is being put on mental health. But sometimes, employees don't want to be seen as being unable to deal with the demands of their job. Do organizations have an ethical responsibility to help employees deal with stress? Why or why not?
I need to write a short essay for this
Please give me some idea

Answer 1

Answer:

I believe it would be a lot easier to argue organization's ethical responsibility to help employees deal with stress.

Here's some ideas:

INTRO

--> Introduce your topic/argument

(make sure to include a thesis statement!!)

First, show the reader how damaging stress can be to the employee by explaining it's negative impact on the employee's wellbeing:

• Symptoms of stress and ways that it negatively impacts employees specifically.
• Mention how stress reduces productivity and site research about it.

Point out how common stress is within the workplace by using stats or current day examples:

• Statistics about the huge percentage of people who report feeling stressed out from work.
• Use the current day example of how the current pandemic has had a massive impact on the stress especially on healthcare workers.
• Main point: stress is a very common and serious problem among employees.

BODY

Argue how organizations DO have an ethical responsibility to help employees deal with stress:

• Point out how it's a very serious problem.
• Argue that an organization who chooses not to help is a bad organization.
• Show examples in history where organizations did not take good care of their employees.

To further strengthen your argument, mention how beneficial it is for the organization itself to provide resources for employees to help them manage their stress:

• Provide statistics on the usefulness of stress-management programs within the workplaces (example: INCREASES PRODUCTION).
• Argue how happier employees also tend to function better in the workplace because they feel supported.
