00:00Welcome back Sunbro. We hope you all in great health and great money.
00:04Before we start, please at least subscribe so we can have little money for food and paying bills.
00:09Alright, today we are going to talk about, signs you're in a toxic job and what to do about it.
00:15Does going to work make you anxious? A toxic workplace can seriously impact your mental health,
00:20causing burnout, insomnia, or depression. Here's how to spot it, manage it, and decide when it's
00:25time to leave. 1. Signs you're in a toxic work environment. If you feel unsafe,
00:30disrespected, or constantly stressed, the environment may be toxic. Watch for a boss
00:35who micromanages, blames, or threatens to fire you. Gossip, cliques, bullying, or passive-aggressive
00:41behavior. Harassment, discrimination, or subtle prejudiced microaggressions. Unrealistic workloads,
00:47low pay, or erratic schedules. Lack of respect, growth, or recognition. A culture of jealousy or
00:52credit-stealing. Unsafe or overly competitive conditions. 2. How it affects your mental health.
00:58Spending hours in a toxic space drains you. It leads to stress, anxiety, and burnout,
01:03while also killing productivity, creativity, and morale. Toxic culture, studies show,
01:08is over 10x more likely to push people to quit than low pay.
01:113. Tips for coping. Take real breaks. Step outside if possible. Set boundaries. Protect your
01:17time and energy. Avoid drama. Don't engage in gossip or negativity. Stay goal-focused. Remind
01:23yourself this is temporary. Reset after work. Walk, shower, or talk to someone you trust.
01:29Keep allies close. Lean on a few reliable co-workers. Stick to your values. Don't mirror
01:34toxic behavior. Manage stress. Try meditation, exercise, or breathing techniques. Start planning
01:40your exit, especially if nothing improves. 4. Look for healthier workplaces.
01:44Many companies now prioritize mental health. Supportive environments offer flexibility for
01:50personal needs, respect for time often breaks, encouragement to prioritize mental wellness,
01:54and fair treatment and access to stress management resources. Workers in safe, supportive environments
01:59report higher satisfaction, better morale, and stronger work-life balance. 5. Can things change?
02:05If toxicity is company-wide or from leadership, change is unlikely. But if it's just a few individuals,
02:11speak to a manager or HR. Some companies offer help through employee assistance programs,
02:16EAPs. If you must stay, protect your mental space and plan your way out.
02:216. When to leave. Ask yourself, is this hurting my mental health? Is the problem a few people or the
02:27whole culture? Is leadership part of the problem? Am I experiencing harassment? If the answer is yes to
02:32any of these, it may be time to move on. Weigh the pros and cons to help make your decision.
