"According to several representative studies, work intensity is on the increase in Europe. One feature closely linked to this is the development of work-related stress. The experience of stress at work has undesirable consequences for the health and safety of workers and negative implications for the functioning of organisations. This publication includes desktop research, case studies, country reports and a first European survey among construction workers. "
