Comment Stress... (Score 1) 147
Although I'd agree that email is a very big stimulus and would encourage a person to feel more anxiety, it seems a bit silly to me to imply that Email is the cause stress in the workplace.
The report may be reflecting the hightened levels of stress most of us now experience in our daily lives compared to even 20 years ago, and email is definitely contributing to this state, but if people are constantly hitting that Send/Receive button, it's because they are feeling under pressure . Not vice versa.
