Divorce Counseling with Dr. Prerna Kohli
It seems like, divorce can have a direct impact on your salary, your increments, and bonuses. Your job performance will suffer and while your employers can’t legally terminate you for being divorced. But, drop in performance has serious ramifications.
Given below are the 7 impacts of divorce on your work-life:
Reduced Productivity: Firstly, research shows that it takes 5 years for a divorced employee to rebound to the same level of productivity.
Unable to Travel: Furthermore, divorced employees with children or other household responsibilities have a limitation on their ability to travel for work.
Disruptive Impact on the Organization: In addition, if a key employee is undergoing divorce their absence physically and mentally from the office can have serious impact on the organization
Distraction: Another concern is, distracted employees work slower and make more mistakes at the workplace, this can a serious impact for those who operate heavy machinery. People who are in customer-facing roles get the impact.
Depression: Rather, depressed employees are less creative. Hence the quality of work gets the impact. Thus, People in advertising and other creative fields which involve design see the effect.
Reduced confidence: As a result, the feeling of rejection from the personal life manifests itself in the workplace.
Rebound Relationships: Consequently the divorced employee seeks emotional support in the workplace making them vulnerable to a more toxic situation.
Progressive companies, have EAP (Employee Assistance Programs) to aid their employees in this period. In conclusion, if you are contemplating divorce, or are in the process of divorce or in the post-divorce phase, it is highly recommended to meet with an experienced psychologist.
