What do you do if you're feeling overwhelmed as a temporary or contract worker?
Feeling overwhelmed is a common experience for temporary and contract workers, who often juggle multiple roles and responsibilities with the added pressure of job insecurity. Emotional Intelligence (EI), the ability to understand and manage your own emotions and those of others, can be a critical skill in managing these feelings of overwhelm. By recognizing and addressing your emotions, you can maintain a level of control over your reactions and interactions, improving your work experience and personal well-being.
