Psychosocial risks are those aspects of the design and management of work, and its social and organisational context that have the potential for causing psychological or physical harm. Work-related stress is one of the health risks most frequently identified by workers in Europe. The factors that can cause stress and influence health and well-being for workers are related to job content; work intensity and job autonomy; working time arrangements and work–life balance; social environment, including interpersonal relationships at work and social support; job insecurity and career development.
