Preventing Stress: Promoting Positive Manager Behaviour Phase 4: How Do Organisations Implement The Findings In Practice?

Our research highlights the pivotal role that line managers play in workplace stress management. For employers to reduce and manage workplace stress effectively they need to ensure that managers demonstrate the skills and behaviours that allow them to manage their staff in ways that minimise work-related stress.

The case studies cover:
The context within the organisation, including stress management activities, management/leadership development and use of a competency framework
How and where the Management Competencies for Preventing and Reducing Stress (MCPARS) at work have been rolled out
How the intervention and other elements of MCPARS research findings have been integrated into the organisationÕs practices and procedures
Facilitators to roll-out/integration
Barriers to roll-out/integration and how they have been overcome.
