Content: You have a ton of work to do, the clock is ticking and your boss is pressuring you to complete the project. When you arrive at work, a colleague comes to your office and asks you to help him fill out some forms. Perhaps it's a five-minute job that you could do with your eyes closed. Instead of helping your colleague, you tell him to go away and stop wasting your time. This kind of situation can result in conflicts and can affect your relationships with others. You're blaming your peers for the stress you're going through without even realizing it. An unbalanced or heavy workload can lead to frustration, disagreements and poor communication among employees. This in turn affects their productivity and increases the likelihood of mistakes happening in the workplace. It has a negative impact on teamwork, decision making, overall performance and employee relationships. Furthermore, high workloads can negatively impact employees' lives outside of the office.
