While moderate exposure to stress at work can act as productivity booster, prolonged exposure not only decreases productivity, but it can also lead to an array of health related problems. Therefore, monitoring stress levels and more importantly correlated stressors, becomes prerequisite for a productive workforce. Considering that verbal interaction is an integral part of workplace environments, we report the results of our study that investigates correlation between perceived stress levels and verbal interaction. 28 workers were monitored over 6 weeks through their smartphones during their daily, real-world behaviour, capturing both verbal interaction and perceived stress levels. Results show that more than half of participants show correlation between perceived stress levels and verbal interaction, while this correlation is observed for over 90% of highly stressed participants.
