Work Support: Make Or Break Ageism In The Workplace

By Michael Mitchell


Waking up with no purpose because of an injury can have a bad reaction to people who are used to the working life. This stumbling block can make one feel as though they are not good enough because of less pay or in some cases, no pay. To avoid ageism In the workplace some organizations do allow for well-grounded support for their employees which can help a great deal, physically and mentally. Whilst others are not willing to dig deeper into their pockets for their employees.

A good support structure is vital to a persons well being and to ensure that they receive all the help that they need. Some organizations offer their support in forms of sick leave or even free visits to a therapist to get their employee back at work as quick as possible. In other cases, organizations offer their employees half day hours instead of their usual eight-hour shift.

Work also comes with its own set of danger. Simple issues such as sitting too close to your pc could damage your eyesight, or a bad backrest on your chair can cause back pains. Generally, life is so busy that most people do not notice but specific industries such as the health sector are a perfect example of constant injury as they are always on their feet.

These workers perform strenuous jobs. Apart from walking from patient to patient, they are also in direct contact with diseases and infections. Even though this is just a job for most people, for others it comes with passion and they rather shrug off the pain than take the sick leave and rest at home.

Ever noticed the warning signs or when people say keep doing it and you will see? They are saying it for good reason. Avoid danger where you can. Follow the procedure and trust your body when it is showing signs of distress. If you are someone who would rather be at work, doing what you do best, take notice before it becomes a problem.

There are many instances when people get so into their work that they find it hard to detach when they have to. Mental issues start to come into play where a person feels as if they are worthless because of not going to work and earning a salary. Waking up in the morning without a purpose can create circumstances in a persons life that ultimately causes anger, depression and more. Having close people around makes it easier to get through this stage.

During this time, more than a few thoughts are passing through ones mind. One of the major concerns is paying the bills. Keeping in mind that sick pay is not always enough to run through the month. Especially if the financial responsibility is placed on the same person. Other factors that come into play is when children are involved because the last thing you want them to find out is that you are on a budget. Also, making them aware of the financial problems can only lead to confusion.

In a home where tension is high because of these reasons, anger and frustration will start to become familiar traits in a relationship. In turn, it will naturally cause a rift between two people. To avoid this, take the necessary measures to ensure that this is not the life you lead.
