Stress

Work has a negative effect on the health of 43% of Bulgarians, shows a national survey of the Labour Inspectorate. 

It encompassed 200 000 employees in all sectors. 

Around 40% of respondents said they work in a stressful environment. One third said they have very short deadlines for their tasks and 20% work very fast. 

Workers at Athens International Airport on Tuesday blamed tough working conditions for the death of a 52-year-old colleague hit by a bus carrying passengers from the departures terminal to a plane bound for Myconos.

A soldier opened fire in the US army base Ft. Hood, wounding 16, killing three soldiers and himself. 

Federal officials said the shooter - Army serviceman Ivan Lopez, 34 - was being treated for anxiety, depression and was under evaluation for post-traumatic stress disorder at the time of the shooting on the base.
