What do you do if your co-worker's lack of emotional intelligence is causing workplace accidents?
Emotional intelligence (EI) is the ability to understand and manage your own and others' emotions, especially in stressful or challenging situations. EI can help you communicate effectively, collaborate smoothly, and cope with stress and conflict. However, not everyone has a high level of EI, and some co-workers may lack the skills or awareness to deal with their own or others' feelings. This can lead to workplace accidents, as they may act impulsively, recklessly, or aggressively, or fail to follow safety rules or procedures. How can you handle such a co-worker and prevent or reduce the risk of accidents? Here are some tips to help you.
