随着世界范围内与工作有关的心理健康问题越来越多,呼吁所有利益攸关方为改善这些问题做出贡献。管理者的行为可以作为一种资源,促进员工的参与,通过他们的行为促进工作中的心理健康。本研究旨在识别管理者支持员工在工作中促进心理健康的行为。采用质的研究设计,通过访谈(n=22)收集数据,并使用模板分析策略进行分析。研究结果揭示了管理者可能采取的20种具体、具体和相当简单的行为,以支持员工参与促进工作中的心理健康的行为。例如,咨询员工、为错误提供空间和组织社交活动是管理者可以采取的行为,以支持员工参与促进工作中心理健康的行为。根据社会交换理论,本研究的结果提出了实现管理者和员工行为互动的良好环境的杠杆。鉴于管理者的行为对工作中心理健康的潜在影响,在管理者培训中纳入这一新知识将是明智的,以促进共同承担工作中的心理健康责任。
With the growing number of work-related mental health problems occurring worldwide, a call for all stakeholders to contribute to improving these problems has emerged. Managers' behaviors may act as a resource to promote the involvement of employees to foster mental health at work through their behaviors. This study aims to identify the behaviors of managers supporting the behaviors of employees fostering mental health at work. Following a qualitative research design, data were collected through interviews (n = 22) and analyzed using a template analysis strategy. The results reveal 20 concrete, specific and fairly simple behaviors that managers may adopt to support the involvement of their employees in behaviors fostering mental health at work. For example, consulting employees, providing room for mistakes and organizing social activities are behaviors managers may adopt to support the engagement of employees in behaviors fostering mental health at work. According to social exchange theory, the results of this study propose levers to implement a favorable context in which the behaviors of managers and those of employees interact. Given the potential influence of managers' behaviors on mental health at work, including this new knowledge in manager training would be judicious to foster shared responsibility for mental health at work.
