Washington: A new study has suggested that workplace stress can put strain on employees' family relationships, especially in case of women.The study has suggested that the pressure to perform has an adverse effect on employees' families. Workplace stress has more adverse effect on women's family relationships rather than men's. In addition, both women and men are more likely to become anxious about childcare arrangements when placed under pressure by workplace practices.
Women are also less likely to get help at home from male partners if men have jobs which they require more time.Evidence of work strain is particularly strong in places such as call centres, where it rises by 10 per cent among employees whose work is continually checked by ICT systems.
