Rising Job Pressure Fuels Mental Health Crisis


Team GSRN| April 20, 2025

Workplace stress is becoming a serious problem for many people, affecting both their mental health and job performance. Long hours, tight deadlines, job pressure, and lack of support are pushing more employees to feel anxious, tired, and burned out.

A recent WHO report says over 60% of workers worldwide face job stress, and mental health issues cause 15% of workplace disabilities. In India, anxiety, burnout, and depression are rising, especially in cities.

Experts warn that stress at work is not just bad for health; it also costs companies a lot of money due to low productivity, sick days, and staff leaving their jobs. Many companies are now trying to help by offering counselling, flexible work hours, and mental health days.

“Mental health is just as important as physical health,” says Dr. Nidhi Verma, a psychologist. “We need workplaces that are caring, supportive, and open about mental well-being.”

The pandemic changed everything; how we work, live, and connect. Now, in the post-pandemic world, many are still adjusting to stress, anxiety, and a new way of life. Mental health matters more than ever.

Climate change reshapes global weather patterns: India's 2025 outlook

By Preety Chaudhary| 02 May, 2025 As the climate crisis intensifies, 2025 has emerged as a pivotal year, with India experiencing unprecedented weather extremes that underscore the urgent need for adaptive strategies. India faced an early and intense heatwave in April 2025, with temperatures soaring above 40°C in Delhi and reaching a staggering 46.4°C in Barmer, Rajasthan. Such extremes are becoming increasingly common, attributed largely to human-driven climate change. Meanwhile, the Himalayas recorded their lowest snowfall in 23 years, threatening the freshwater supply for nearly two billion people across Asia. This decline jeopardizes agriculture, hydropower, and drinking water resources in the region. Globally, abrupt temperature shifts rapid transitions between extreme heat and cold have increased, affecting over 60% of the planet. These fluctuations, driven by jet stream changes and soil moisture variations, pose significant challenges to agriculture and infrastructure. Climate ch...

Rising Cases of Sudden Cardiac Arrest

Team GSRN| New Delhi|14-04-2025 We are witnessing a global rise in cases of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA). It's important to understand that cardiac arrest and heart attack are not the same. Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) is the sudden loss of all heart activity due to an irregular heart rhythm called ventricular fibrillation., leading to a sudden stop in heart function, breathing, and consciousness. Immediate treatment, such as CPR is given to help revive the patient during a cardiac emergency, whereas heart attack happens when blood flow to a part of the heart is blocked. However, a heart attack can cause a change in the heart's electrical activity that leads to sudden cardiac arrest. In India, data from the Indian Heart Association (IHA) indicates that over 50% of heart attack deaths occur in people under 50, and 25% in those under 40. Sedentary lifestyles, poor dietary habits, smoking, and rising levels of hypertension and diabetes have compounded the crisis. A Lancet study also...
