Title A name given to the resource Organizational Interventions and Mental Health in the Workplace: A Synthesis of International Approaches Subject The topic of the resource intervention programs and strategies involving occupational mental health. The authors have defined a reference framework that requires that evidence of problems of stress exist before conducting workplace interventions. This approach necessitates the establishment of proof as to the presence of sources of stress and a clear description of these sources, the resulting symptoms, and the consequences of this stress, in order to propose and evaluate interventions likely to address the problem in its entirety. - According to this framework, sociotechnical type interventions, which emphasize objective changes to the environment and mainly to task design, would be advantageous. The other type of intervention (psychosocial) tends instead to act on the employee's perception of his environment, by means of strategies supporting participation, communication and social relationships, while reducing the ambiguity of roles, mitigating conflict, and increasing autonomy. For the authors, the research is still insufficient to formulate firm opinions about this second type of intervention. - The report contains many recommendations on the research necessary in this field, on the methodology and measurement of variables, on practice within organizations, and on the promotion of excellence in research. Researchers and practitioners will find that this document contains relevant information for promoting occupational mental health.

Title A name given to the resource Changer l'environnement psychosocial du travail pour améliorer la santé mentale Subject The topic of the resource This document is the result of an epidemiological study in which the researchers evaluated a participatory intervention (employers, unions and management) carried out on a hospital's caregiving personnel; the purpose of the intervention was to prevent work-related mental health problems. It targeted psychosocial work environment constraints recognized as pathogenic: high psychological demand, low decision latitude and poor social support, imbalance between the effort invested and the recognition received. The preliminary results offer promise of a reduction in absenteeism due to a decrease in mental health problems, a reduction in personnel turnover as well as in costs of health care and in the compensation paid to the victims of occupational injuries associated with this type of problem, while at the same time, an increase in efficiency and productivity. The authors believe that the proposed intervention contributes significantly to the preservation of occupational mental health. They produced this non-technical tool to widen the intervention's dissemination; the tool makes it easier to understand the intervention and implementation as well as its adoption by other work environments.
