Job stress risks and their sources in the changing organization of work activity are also sufficiently important to have gained recognition in the U.S. media. Identification of hazards builds on multi-disciplinary understanding of the stress development process at the workplace. Prevention techniques include monitoring strategies, training, communication strategies, and redesign of the organization and technical aspects of work processes.
