If an employer ignores stress in employees what symptom are employees likely to develop?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

Burnout is a symptom that can further eradicate performance because of stress in employees. Employers must recognize stress and address the issues caused by stress. Although burnout is work-related, most responsibility for burnout currently rests on the individual worker in the United States, as well as the individual company, as it is in a company's best interest to ensure burnout doesn't occur. The NIOSH outlines an approach in their booklet 'Stress at Work.'

Answer option A is incorrect. De-motivation may occur, but burnout is the preferred terminology.

Answer option D is incorrect. Approximately 40 percent of turnover is due to stress, but turnover is not necessarily a symptom of an employee.

Answer option C is incorrect. Stress may cause tumors, though there are more complicated health matters that contribute to this symptom. The best answer is burnout.

Tumors seem too extreme for this question, right? I feel like it's definitely between burnout and turnover.

I practiced a similar question, and I think de-motivation could also be a symptom, but burnout seems more severe.

I remember discussing turnover in class, but I feel like burnout might be more directly related to stress.

I think burnout is a big issue when stress is ignored, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the only symptom.

I'm a bit confused by the wording here. Is it asking about the specific role of 'Operator' or just any role with the necessary privileges? I'll have to carefully consider each option.

This looks like a pretty straightforward configuration question. I think I can handle this one.

Ah, I've seen this type of question before. The key is remembering that a navigation path is a collection of non-measure columns. And you can definitely have multiple navigation paths in a data module. I'll select A and E.
