Answer to Question 1

Answer: Probably not. While work redesign helps eliminate situational stressors that arise in the workplace, it is typically oriented toward increasing freedom and autonomy for lower-level workers. Here, Chet's primary problem is that he lacks sufficient time; it is not that Chet lacks the decision-making ability to change his situation.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Community, which helps eliminate encounter stress, can be achieved by setting up work teams. In this situation, it appears that Chet feels isolated because he individually deals with employees and problems in the plant. One step he should consider is to hire an assistant. Another he should consider is to set up special work teams to brainstorm and generate creative ideas. This would help him feel more of a sense of community.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
