They might feel too anxious and they might make it worse for other co-workers as well. First of all, they should try from their home like family, neighbours and proceed to the workplace. Trying the workplace just like that without preparation might not end well for their professionalism.

Now I got your point,You're right social anxiety persons should take small steps to overcome their anxiety,Starting with family and neighbours is great idea.As you said directly jumping to workplace will ruin their professional life.

Haha "Ticking Bomb" I love this Phrase.Not only they increase their anxious,They also make others tension as well.

The first thing that has to be done is to get the particular person out of the scenario, let him/her heal in that time! The most appropriate job for a social anxiety illed person would be a job filled with a lot of positive minded people, probably IT industries!
