Studies on Intervention Process Evaluation are attracting growing attention in the literature on interventions linked to stress and the wellbeing of workers. There is evidence that some elements relating to the process and content of an intervention may have a decisive role in implementing it by facilitating or hindering the effectiveness of the results. This study aimed to provide a process evaluation on interventions to assess and manage risks related to work-related stress using a methodological path offered by INAIL. The final sample is composed of 124 companies participating to an interview on aspects relating to each phase of the INAIL methodological path put in place to implement the intervention. INAIL methodology has been defined as useful in the process of assessing and managing the risks related to work-related stress. Some factors related to the process (e.g., implementation of a preliminary phase, workers’ involvement, and use of external consultants) showed a role in significant differences that emerged in the levels of risk, particularly in relation to findings from the preliminary assessment. Main findings provide information on the key aspects of process and content that are useful in implementing an intervention for assessing and managing risks related to work-related stress.

In recent years there has been a significant growth in online learning and the delivery of joint programmes of education involving collaborative partnerships between higher education institutions in different jurisdictions. This paper details a case-study of the pilot delivery and assessment of a new online learning programme ‘Certificate in the Management of Work-Related Stress’. This programme was developed as part of an innovative partnership between four European Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) located in Austria, Ireland, Switzerland and the United Kingdom to develop and deliver an accredited online learning programme, as part of a wider EU funded project called DELAROSE, on the management of work-related stress for workers in the health and social care sector across Europe. It describes the nature of the online course, with particular attention given to, the assessment activities undertaken by learners throughout the course, and the collection and analysis of learner feedback as this relates to feasibility and impact of the programme of learning. This case-study highlights the positive benefits to learners of embedding course content and assessment experiences within a real-life workplace context

This case study aims to draw attention to the impact of work-related stress on psychiatrists. The first author's account of his own experience is supplemented by accounts from his secretary and wife. The aims of this report are to assist others to recognise the effects of work-related stress in themselves, to point out the impact on others, and to propose that doctors in training should be made aware of the issues.
