This costs many hours of productivity, especially when key personnel or production workers are absent-in fact, it's estimated that $300 billion is lost on stress-caused illnesses and absenteeism.  A workplace that supports stress management through workplace wellness programs not only helps their employees to handle pressure better and stay healthier during times of stress, it also sends a message that their company cares about them. This provides emotional support as well as physical support for fighting the effects of stress.
