Management Of The Organizational Stress

One major stressor in my life is my husband’s side of the family. Which has had a huge impact on our marriage and for some reason they just won't leave us alone. I believe it’s that my mother in law loves my husband dearly because he was always the one to help her and do her errands, but when we got married we moved to New York and we go to her every week. The thing is she always says or does things whether intentional or not that hurts so much and as a result my husband and I end up fighting a lot. It would make a huge difference if my husband kind of stopped her habits towards me from the beginning or if he has my back. It’s worse when you know that you're alone, and they all know that I'm right but they don't want to say it because it's their mother, and they will just say, "Oh you have it bad, go ask so and so what her in laws did to her". Not knowing that they do the same things but just don't see it.

The best thing do is honestly, just complain to my mother because she's the only one that understands me and will always tell me advice or say something even if I don't want to hear but she for sure says it to me because she only wants to say it to me for the best interest for me. Another thing is to go in to my in laws house with a mindset that I already know what I'm going to hear or see from them and to just let it go in one ear and out the other. Another option is just for me to not go, but knowing my in laws they will say that they miss the kids and they will make my husband take the kids and go.

I believe it is very important for organizations do help their employees in managing stress whether or not the stress is related to work. As stated in Work Organization and Stress, the organization should be aware in how they manage stress and that some sources are certain departments such as training, or human resources that could help. If it’s a more difficult situation then a psychologist should be sought. It is vital that leaders take into consideration that the employees have families and they have school or anything else for that matter once they leave work. Employees shouldn't have to be on their laptops and phones checking emails.

I believe that it is vital that employers assist their employees in organizational stress. If organizations don't they will have many consequences. Some consequences are not limited to having employers quitting a lot which results in a turnover, employees will start missing work or calling in sick, if they do come into work they will have a bad work experience and poor job performance.
