5047.1 Psychological disorders in industrial managers & workers: Future directives for
managing stress, Abhilasha Singh, Asst. Professor, India
The path to meaningful & satisfying way of life have become increasingly difficult in modern
times. It is startling to note that psychiatrists are paying too little attention on the psychopathology
of industrial/organizational workers. The present research has special significance in solving
various operational problems of organizations by estimating prevelance of work psychopathology
through CAQ, MPQ, Mental-Health Symptom Checklist, thus replacing intuitive decisions by
more scientific decisions. Statistical Analysis of results highlights the need for better utilization of
human capacities through a comprehensive program of effective stress management techniques of
Deep Muscle Relaxation, Stress Inoculation Training & Cognitive Intervention Strategies.

Many community mental health agencies do not utilize human resource planning, resulting in staff
allocation decisions subjectively made without empirical analyses of factors such as community
risks, projected growth, and changing funding streams. Utilizing a local community mental health
agency, this study proposed and explored several models for employing community and revenue
data in human resource plan development. The goal of such a plan was threefold: 1)improve
delivery of services to those communities most in need and 2) offer creative solutions for
counteracting programmatic cuts with untapped revenue streams; 3) provide a better record of
agency accountability to the public.
