Abstract
The nature and feasibility of preventive measures taken to reduce work stress in the construction industry are discussed. Employers and employees in 18 construction companies were surveyed about feasible measures to reduce work stress. From the viewpoint of work stress, working with teams is the solution as it is an innovative measure. The measures include the use of older employees to act as coaches for younger personnel, and counseling and brief therapies.
