Abstract

Stress is a pervasive problem in the manufacturing industry, with studies suggesting that up to 80% of employees experience it at work. This study examines the effects of stress management on employee productivity, with a focus on acute, chronic, and traumatic stress as a measure of stress. A survey of 265 respondents was conducted at Flour Mills Nigeria PLC, representing a target population of 348 out of the total population of 2673. The findings, analysed using Pearson’s correlation, reveal that stress management measures have a significant impact on employee productivity. Specifically, this study shows that acute, traumatic, and chronic stress significantly influence employee productivity. Based on these results, this study recommends that management prioritise stress-relief activities to enhance employee productivity. By doing so, organisations can mitigate the negative effects of stress and promote a healthier and more productive work environment.
