“…[ 3 ] This has reduced the level of work engagement as it is against their predicted job outputs. [ 4 ] When the workloads become uncontrollable and demands are excessive, the teachers feel exhausted and frustrated which could lead to work-related stress. Without a doubt, an employee’s working environment affects both their general wellbeing and how successfully they do their job obligations.…”

Background: The need for stress management strategies has been empirically investigated and supported considering demands in workplaces. However, some people in public offices do not seem to have been exposed to occupational health strategies that could reduce the adverse impacts of stress on job productivity and quality of life. Consequently, they become susceptible to mental health disturbances requiring the attention of occupational therapists. Given this, we studied the impact of occupational health coaching for job stress management among technical college teachers.Methods: Using a randomized control design study, 90 technical college teachers were screened and ready to participate. The eligible teachers were included and assigned to intervention and control groups. An occupational stress index was given to the participants before, immediately after, and 2 months after the delivery of occupational coaching program by career counselors while the comparison group received no intervention. Data collected were analyzed using multivariate analysis of variance analysis. Results:The results showed a significant improvement in the management of job stress after receiving rational emotive occupational health coaching. According to the multivariate analysis of variance analysis, there were between-group differences immediately after the intervention and 3 months later. As a result, the study suggested that career counselors and school management systems should incorporate rational-emotive behavioral therapy into workforce and workplace programs.

“…[37] The founding that REOHC reduces work-family conflict related to irrational beliefs and improves their quality of work-life was in line with the study of David et al [38] Similarly, past evidence also revealed the effectiveness of REBT-approached in altering maladaptive thoughts and misinterpretation events by career parents. [18,22,39] It is possible that those parents who are also educational administrators could be having challenges due to home factors. Home life and working life are 2 elements that affect each other correlatively.…”

Background: Many workers in developing countries have complained about poor working conditions, unhappiness, and job insecurity. As a result, irrationality in employees judgments of the dissatisfactory status of Nigerian organizational environments has been linked to deviant public employee behavior. Apparently, workers in this work environment experience job-induced hazards and distorted feelings about their occupational well-being. With that in mind, we evaluated the impact of rational-emotive occupational health coaching on work-life quality and occupational stress management among educational administrators in Nigeria. Methods: This research employed a group-randomized trial design. A total number of 70 administrators were recruited, measured with 2 measurement tools during the study. Frequency, percentage, and Chi-square statistics were employed to describe the recruited sample, and inferential (mixed model ANOVA) statistics were utilized to examine the information gathered from the participants. Results: The result showed a significant effect of the rational-emotive occupational health coaching (REOHC) group in decreasing the perception of stress and work-family conflict management among educational administrators. Also, the study reported a significant effect of time on administrators’ occupational stress and work-family conflict management. The results also indicate that administrators’ occupational stress and work-family conflict coping skills had a significant influence due to group and time interaction effects. Conclusion: REOHC is a powerful and useful coaching strategy that improves perceptions of administrators about work-life and job stress in work environment. Based on these results, we recommend REOHC for practitioners in different works of life.

“…[20][21][22][23] Consistent and significant outcomes of past studies revealed that REBT would decrease psychological disturbances affecting people. [24][25][26] The likelihood that the REBT treatment will boost self-esteem is far less certain. This is because the problem of low self-esteem has persisted.…”
