A Review of Occupational Stress Management Techniques and Interventions at Workplace

Author Name : Shashi Rashmi

In this paper, the author reviewed the empirical researches into occupational stress interventions conducted in India within the past 10 years. They studied the evidence published and the quality of the evidence base. All intervention studies were conducted in the public sector. Only 1 study reached the gold standard in evidence-based research. Most interventions were individually focused, despite the preponderance of research identifying risky work environment stressors. Review Results suggest a paucity of published information regarding what works with occupational stress interventions in India and an urgent need for further research in the area, particularly focusing on the private sector, rural workers, and scientific evaluation.
