1	ACAS Stress at work advice Stress is costly, especially for small firms where cover for sick employees is difficult to arrange. Stress can reduce the effectiveness of employees and lead to higher rates of absence. Research estimates that 12.8 million working days were lost to stress, depression and anxiety in 2004/5. Each new case of stress leads to an average of 29 days off work. Work-related stress costs society about £3.7 billion every year (at 1995/6 prices). Work-related stress is widespread. About one in five people in a stress study said that they found their work either very stressful or extremely stressful.	187

11	The UK National Work-stress network All too often we hear of workers trapped in highly stressful environments, often also the subject of bullying, victimisation and harassment or discrimination. We learn that their managers or employers make excessive demands, neglect their common law duty of care and clearly ignore the cost to the organisation, through sick pay, long term absence, reduced production and potential compensation for making their workers ill. The UK National Work-Stress Network is committed to the eradication of the causes of work-related stress and associated illnesses. It campaigns to advance this aim through its involvement with the Hazards Campaign; and in conjunction with the TUC, European organisations, within UK Trades Union structures.	202
