Abstract

Workplace stress has been widely recognized as a critical factor influencing employee health, performance, and organizational outcomes. Recent advancements in wearable technologies provide real-time physiological data that open new opportunities for monitoring and managing stress in professional settings. This study aims to empirically investigate the relationship between wearable-based stress detection and workplace productivity, focusing on how continuous monitoring can enhance well-being and performance. A quantitative approach was employed with 250 participants across three corporate sectors, where wearable devices measured physiological indicators such as heart rate variability and skin conductance, while productivity was assessed through task completion rates and self-reported efficiency. Statistical analyses, including correlation, regression, and moderation analysis, were conducted to examine the strength of associations. Findings reveal a significant negative correlation between elevated stress levels and productivity metrics, while participants using wearable feedback interventions demonstrated improved stress awareness and a 15% increase in task efficiency compared to the control group. In conclusion, wearable stress detection presents a promising tool for enhancing workplace productivity by enabling proactive stress management, highlighting the importance of integrating technology, psychology, and organizational practices to foster healthier and more effective work environments.
