Funded Activity Summary

Promoting employee mental health through the development of managers' psychological capital: A controlled field experiment. Depression significantly impacts Australian communities and costs the economy approximately 12 million days in lost productivity each year. By delivering a mental health promotion program to managers of small-medium enterprises, this study will enhance the psychological wellbeing and mental health literacy of managers in a sector of the business community often neglected in occupational health research. The program targets managers within Tasmania, a setting representing regional communities in which people have a higher risk of mental ill-health problems.
