"Financial stress accounts for reduced job productivity in an estimated 15 percent of workers. The stress doesn't just come from worries over whether a person has enough money, either. Stress can accumulate as an individual continues to make bad financial decisions, such as spending more than one has, ignoring bills, writing bad checks, and going over credit limits. These behaviors can lead to repossessions, late notices, late fees, harassment from collection agencies, or even bankruptcy.
Anyone who has ever tried to juggle the stress of a job with the stress of financial insecurity knows that the two are bound to collide. We find ourselves being distracted on the job, missing deadlines, missing work, or actually getting sick as the stress chips away at the well-being of our minds and bodies."
