Summary
In a Yougov survey of 1,153 employees, 44 percent reported increased mental or physical stress at work. For the members of the 1965 to 1980 years, however, it was only 17 percent. And another 29 percent reported at least partially higher stress.
Furthermore, Younger people, who still have a long working life ahead of them, feel the pressure particularly strongly: According to the survey, 37 percent of those under the age of 30 fear that artificial intelligence could make their jobs superfluous in the future. Majority Convinced: Pressure Is Increasing More than half do not believe that the end of the banner has already been reached: More than one in two (54 percent) expects increasing demands on personal flexibility and resilience, another third (33 percent) expects increasing demands in parts. The survey revealed a big difference between production and administration and other office functions: they clearly feel less pressure, with only 37 percent saying yes to the question of the additional burden.
In addition, Two main causes: nearly half each cited savings and efficiency programs (49 percent) as well as staff reductions or the non-occupation of vacant positions (48 percent). The survey was conducted by Swiss financial services provider Swiss Life and the Industrial Union for Mining, Chemicals and Energy (IG BCE). “Economy and politics should see this as a wake-up call from the middle of industrial reality,” said IG-BCE Chairman Michael Vasiliadis.
