All In The Mind: Stress At Work

Junior doctor turned author and stand up, Adam Kay's diary of his time of working in the NHS struck a chord and sold over a million copies in the UK.

It's a story of working under duress, long hours and limited resources which many people can identify with - and he delivered over 1200 babies in those circumstances.

Gail Kinman is Professor of Occupational Health Psychology at the University of Bedfordshire. Gail's worked with doctors, nurses, prison officers and social workers.

Together with presenter Claudia Hammond and an audience they will look at what stress is, how people get burnt out as well as how to spot the warning signs. What can individuals do to protect themselves and what are the responsibilities of the organisations they work for.

But if someone is part of the gig economy, on a zero hours contract, juggling several jobs or a digital nomad - how can they look after their mental health?
