Могу | Умею 

Man 1: Several years ago, I was in a car accident that left me with a back injury. As a computer programmer, I am still able to do my job, but I often have to take painkillers. When the pain gets particularly bad, I sometimes have to lie down on my back for a while until it goes away because sitting up really hurts. When we were in the office, I would worry that my colleagues would see me taking pills. Since we’ve been working from home, it has been much better. I can go and see my physical therapist more often too. I don’t have to worry as much and if I need to lie down for a little while to help my back, I can. When we were in the office, I’d sometimes be in a lot of pain but didn’t feel like I could say anything.

Woman: I have suffered from depression for a long time. Most of the time I manage it, but I often feel very nervous. Working in an office was really hard as I was always scared that I might panic and my colleagues would wonder why I was acting strangely. Working at home has been so much better for me as I don’t have to talk to so many people and I can have a relaxed environment and play peaceful music. Management is talking about going back to the office soon and I can already feel a lot of anxiety about it. I’m worried that I will not be able to hide that I’m depressed and people will judge me.

Man 2: I’m quite deaf in one ear. I don’t like to mention it when I’m at work because I feel as though there is often a stigma around disabilities. I worry that people will treat me differently. The problem is, sometimes I don’t hear when people are talking to me and then they think I’m ignoring them or I’m not listening. Working at home has been great for me because all of our communication has been online or video calls and I can wear headphones like everyone else. I’m not looking forward to going back to the office and I don’t see the point as I can do my job perfectly well from home.

Living With Disabilities 

Workplace anxiety is a growing concern for businesses and organizations of all sizes. It refers to the feelings of worry, fear, and unease that employees may experience in their professional environments. This type of anxiety can have significant impacts on an individual's productivity, job performance, and overall well-being, ultimately affecting the success and profitability of the company as a whole.

The manifestations of workplace anxiety can take many forms. Employees may experience physical symptoms such as headaches, muscle tension, and digestive issues. Mentally, they may struggle with decreased concentration, indecisiveness, and feelings of dread about going to work. Behaviorally, workplace anxiety can lead to absenteeism, presenteeism (where employees are physically present but not fully engaged), and even burnout.

At the core, workplace anxiety is driven by a variety of factors, both internal and external to the organization. Internal factors may include high-pressure work environments, unrealistic deadlines, lack of job security, poor communication from management, and interpersonal conflicts with colleagues. External factors can encompass economic uncertainty, industry disruptions, and societal stressors that seep into the workplace.

The business implications of workplace anxiety are far-reaching. Reduced productivity and performance can directly impact the bottom line, as tasks take longer to complete and mistakes become more frequent. Increased healthcare costs associated with stress-related illnesses and higher turnover rates can also weigh heavily on a company's financial resources. Moreover, workplace anxiety can erode employee morale, collaboration, and overall job satisfaction, making it challenging to attract and retain top talent.
