Young Aussie Workers Most Stressed Out, Says Survey

A new survey finds that Australian employees are suffering high levels of stress and they have more depression and anxiety symptoms than previously thought.

The poll commissioned by the Australian Psychological Society (APS) found that younger people are the most stressed and people older than 66 are coping the best, News.com.au reported.

Depression - Types, Causes, Symptoms, Diagnosis, Treatment
Depression is one of the most common mental disorders affecting approximately 340 million people in the world. No one is immune from depression - it occurs in people of all social classes, all countries and all cultural settings.

The online survey of 1548 people, 999 of whom are employed found that workplace issues include a lack of feedback, unclear expectations and not feeling valued.

When compared with previous years, employees report significantly lower levels of job satisfaction and lower levels of interest in their job.

The survey also found that women feel more supported by their managers than men.
