Download Free Items from HandoutsPlus.com for Helping Employers Deal Anxious Employees and Parents Concerned about Back to School Issues

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

Dan Feerst - Publisher of Workplace Wellness Materials Releases Free Handouts to Human Resource Managers to Calm Employee Anxiety and Support Parents Worried about Back to School Issues of COVID-19

 

This information is meant to help employees who are parents better manage
 their anxiety, worry, and stress associated with managing their children
going back to school in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.

 

Mount Pleasant, South Carolina, August 12, 2020, The COVID-19 Pandemic has been the cause of a tremendous amount of anxiety. It can and does, hurt employee performance. Information leads to knowledge, and knowledge eases anxiety and the fear factor. Many employers have cut their Employee Assistance Programs (EAP’s) in favor of 800 hotlines, which are not as effective.

 

Dan Feerst, author and publisher of HandoutsPlus.com, realized that he is in a position to offer this free information better than others because he is in the business of providing a plethora of Workplace Wellness Materials. These free items were prepared originally for employee assistance programs nationwide, but he is concerned few workers would gain access to these materials. They are therefore letting any human resource manager, workforce management professional, or CEO download them free without cost or obligation.

 

Included in the free package is a PowerPoint on managing stress and anxiety associated with the Coronavirus. Designed for employees are: reproducible and editable handouts in PDF, MS Publisher, and MS Word, a Web video for employers based on the PowerPoint, and a  reproducible/editable handout to distribute to employees who are parents to help them cope with stress and anxiety related to their children going back to school. The anxiety level of parents sending their kids off to school is through the roof, these resource handouts should help lessen their fears.

 

Dan Feerst wants employees to know that they have the option of receiving other free human resource related workplace wellness tip sheets regularly distributed without cost or obligation. An MP4 video on helping employees face the unique challenges of working remotely is also available.

 

They offer professionally authored handouts and tip sheets on workplace wellness topics and supervisor skills, reducing risk, improving employee’s assistance program functioning, and helping employees be healthy, happy, and productive. The Frontline Employee Human resources newsletter has been very well received by employers.

Fix It Formula (for a Terrible Relationship with the Supevisor)

Communication difficulties top the list of problems employees have with their bosses. Most boil down to five key issues. They include
  • Disparities in the amount of work assigned from one employee to the next.
  • Minimal praise or no recognition for a job well done
  • Dissatisfaction with pay and refusal to address it
  • Personality style and performance style differences
  • Minimal or no constructive feedback about performance
So, here is the Fix-It for Improving the Relationship with Your Supervisor...
  • Prior to meeting with your boss, define the real issue that is creating problems in your relationship. Consider whether you played a role. Did communication issues play a role?
  • Write down your concerns. Forget the small and petty stuff for now.
  • Meet with your supervisor and explain in plain, unemotional language your observations and concerns about the relationship.
  • Be positive in your energy and demeanor—not cocky, passive aggressive, or acting as if you are cornering your boss.
  • Wait for your supervisor’s response. He or she may agree or may have another opinion. Hang on every word. Do not be defensive.
  • Own your “half” of the relationship problem. It is unlikely you will get very far if you don’t accept the universal principle that each party in conflict plays a role in contributing to relationship problems.
  • Your goal is an improved relationship, not to find fault.
  • Ask for constructive feedback on your performance. Let your boss have the last word in this conversation.
Initiate regular contact with your boss going forward. As nationally known EA professional and mental health therapist, Dodie Gill, LPC frequently said, "Do not let a tree grow between you and your supervisor." EAP Employee Assistance Programs
