A small act of kindness goes a long way. This is a phrase
most of us may have heard from time to time. The fact of the matter is, this is
completely true. A simple smile to your friends, colleagues and coworkers can
make their day. You don’t know how bad someone’s day has been but you know you
can make it much better with a simple act of kindness.
This is especially true in a work environment due to all the
stress everyone is under. Workplace stress is a problem for many people. In fact,
79 percent of people have reported that they suffer from stress at their
workplace. Moreover, the stress doesn’t necessarily mean that it is because of
the workload but it can be more complicated than that. There are thousands of
things going on in everyone’s life and they can affect their work and
productivity.
Despite all of that, there are many things that a company can
do to reduce the stress of its employees. Encouraging kindness is the most
effective ways of doing so. It doesn’t take a big budget or a meeting to create
a culture of kindness in the workplace. It is simply an act of moral values.
Take a look at the following infographic that shows six of
the most effective ways where you can spread kindness in the workplace.
