psychological association more than a third of americans, including almost 40 percent of people here in pennsylvania, say they are living with stress. 60 percent report that work is the source. the easiest place to begin reducing work-related stress may be in the way you deal with e-mail. researchers have coined a term, tell i pressure to describe our urge to respond immediately to e-mail. according to a recent study these fixated employees had poorer sleep quality and were more likely to miss work for health reasons. not only may your obsession of responding to e-mail make you anxious but it could hurt your productivity by becoming focused on instant responses. to foster a healthier pattern ask your boss to set clear expectation about response times. instead of asking for information asap, managers should spell out the exact deadline for their request. teams can set period during the day, to go through e-mails. these small steps should help you reduce one stressor

in your life. i'm jill schlesinger for cbs-3 "e
