Communication Techniques to Enhance Psychological Safety and Generate Vitality at Work - Stress Management Program to Create a Lively Workplace Free of Power Harassment

Introduction

We are conducting “Development and validation of an effective short-term intervention program for general employees to prevent power harassment and improve their work engagement (positive and fulfilling state toward work). This document is a workbook for the program for general employees produced in this study. In this study, we focused on psychological safety (a state in which the belief that interpersonal relationships are not threatened even if one expresses one's own opinions in the workplace) as an important factor for preventing power harassment and improving work engagement. Based on various previous findings, we developed a program to help participants acquire appropriate communication skills and coping skills in interpersonal stressful situations. The program is expected to help build an organization with high psychological safety and free from power harassment, and to promote work engagement among workers. We hope you will take advantage of this program for your workplace occupational health activities and for your own self-improvement.
