The staff donned pyjamas at work for Lifeline's Stress Down Day, a day aimed at raising awareness of stress in the workplace.
Cornerstone Youth Services chief executive Brian Wightman said staff also held a morning tea to raise funds for the crisis support service.
"It's a good bit of fun, using humour in the workplace to reduce stress in the workplace," a dressing gown- clad Mr Wightman said.
Mr Wightman suggested workplaces ensured that a level of camaraderie, open communication and trust was maintained among staff.
He reminded workers to try and "switch off" at home.
"To actually be able to switch off from social media is actually really important - to differentiate what needs to be done," he said.
Cornerstone Youth Services chairman Hugh McKenzie commended the organisation on its efforts.
"We must recognise as a community that there are a number of service providers working to support the increasingly complex needs of Northern Tasmanians, particularly young people," Mr McKenzie said.
"Cornerstone Youth Services stands ready to collaborate in order to reduce duplication through streamlining services."
