Title: Ergophobia or ergasiophobia
Post by: SEO on April 19, 2016, 01:31:49 AM

Ergophobia

or ergasiophobia


It's an interesting phobia. :D

"Ergophobia or ergasiophobia is an abnormal and persistent fear of work (manual labor, non-manual labour, etc.) or finding employment. Ergophobia may also be a subset of either social phobia or performance anxiety. Sufferers of ergophobia experience undue anxiety about the workplace environment even though they realize their fear is irrational. Their fear may actually be a combination of fears, such as fear of failing at assigned tasks, speaking before groups at work (both of which are types of performance anxiety), socializing with co-workers (a type of social phobia), and other fears of emotional, psychological and/or physiological injuries.
The term ergophobia comes from the Greek "ergon" (work) and "phobos" (fear)."https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ergophobia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Text_of_Creative_Commons_Attribution-ShareAlike_3.0_Unported_License
