Primary Prevention

similar to psychoeducation and awareness, focuses on preventing the onset of mental health conditions by promoting mental wellness and reducing risk factors. We emphasize strategies that enhance emotional resilience and stress management to maintain good mental health. This phase includes:

• Implementing workplace mental health literacy programs.
• Offering stress management and resilience-building workshops.
• Encouraging work-life balance and flexible working arrangements.

Secondary Prevention

akin to a training and coping skills learning phase, involves early detection and intervention to prevent the progression of mental health issues. This phase includes:

• Routine mental health screenings
• Stress management intervention for individuals at risk
• Traumatic stress coping skills training
• Facilitating access to intervention and employee assistance programs.
• Developing mental health response plans and crisis intervention strategies.

Tertiary Prevention

Rehabilitation, learning, and development phase, centers on averting further complications for individuals with existing mental health conditions. Tertiary prevention aims to facilitate the management of mental health conditions, minimize their impact on an individual's life, and help prevent further complications or relapses by offering supportive interventions and resources. This phase includes adjunct supportive interventions such as:

• Psychosocial rehabilitation programs to support recovery
• Learning and Development related coaching and training
• Vocational training and job placement assistance
• Enhancing the skills of managers and colleagues in providing support and reducing stigma
