In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) programs for Occupational Stress. Completed, enrolled 218 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Occupational stress is one of the leading work-related factors that influence the health of employees and their ability to work. Stress at work is unavoidable due to changing and increasing demands and types of work. The teaching profession is one of the most stressful jobs with a high level of psychological morbidity globally. Stress may occur together with common mental disorders, which are one of the leading causes of disability worldwide. However, very little is known about the occurrence of occupational stress among schoolteachers. Several interventions have been designed to help school teachers to cope with stress. However, lifestyle modification intervention is not well explored, therefore, this study aims to evaluate the impact of lifestyle modification intervention on occupational stress management among community-level schoolteachers. Through effective intervention tools, workplace health can be enhanced, and the well-being of schoolteachers could be maintained.
