The American Psychological Association recently surveyed workers to determine what causes them the most work stress. The third highest stressor for employees is heavy workload.
42% of workers surveyed, claim they are stressed due to a perceived heavy workload. In Exodus 18, Moses’ father-in-law, Jethro, was a wise leader who helped Moses overcome Moses’ heavy workload.
In Exodus 18:17 we read, “Moses’ father-in-law said to him, “The thing that you are doing is not good. You will surely wear out, both yourself and these people who are with you, for the task is too heavy for you; you cannot do it alone.”
Jethro coached Moses on how to identify leaders and delegate his work. If you have employees overworked, help them find ways to better delegate their workload.
