Educational Actions and Health Prevention for Managers and Teams: Systematic Review
Abstract
The high demands of managers work have made them vulnerable to work-related illnesses. Educational actions in the area of Training, Development and Education can benefit the mental health of these professionals. This systematic review analyzed articles whose interventions focused on health prevention for managers and teams. The study followed the PRISMA protocol and thirteen articles were selected. Managers had decreased stress, burnout syndrome, depressive symptoms, psychological distress and insomnia. There was an increase in confidence and self-efficacy to talk about mental illnesses and in the recognition of their role in employing and managing actions to promote the health of the team. Teams whose managers participated in the interventions had better health indicators compared to those who did not participate. It is concluded that educational actions are effective for health prevention for managers and teams. It is suggested that further longitudinal investigations be carried out and the use of multilevel analyses.
