Context: According to a 2017 survey, stress is a prevalent issue in our society. The survey found that 71% of respondents reported experiencing at least one symptom of stress over the past month.

With stress being so prevalent in our society, stress management training is becoming increasingly essential in today's fast-paced and demanding work environments.

Challenge: High levels of stress can negatively impact individuals' well-being, productivity, and overall job satisfaction. According to a study conducted by the American Psychological Association (APA), workplace stress is a significant factor contributing to decreased employee engagement and increased absenteeism, turnover rates, and healthcare costs. Furthermore, chronic stress can lead to various physical and mental health issues, including cardiovascular problems, anxiety, depression, and burnout.

Solutions: To reduce employee unmanaged stress, self-paced eLearning courses were created. These eLearning courses aimed to equip employees with effective coping strategies and resilience-building techniques to better manage and reduce stress levels.

Results: By providing stress management training, organizations can create a healthier and more productive work environment while supporting the well-being of their employees (APA, 2021; Sinclair et al., 2016). Research published in the Journal of Occupational Health Psychology has shown that stress management interventions, such as relaxation techniques, mindfulness practices, and time management strategies, can lead to improved mental health, job performance, and overall job satisfaction among employees.
