Abstract
Stressmanagement training benefits individual participants andtheir employer organisations in terms of improved health, higherproductivity, reduced absenteeism, and fewer accidents. However,employee reluctance to enroll in stressmanagement training programmesis common. An easytocomplete, selfadministered diagnostic inventorycan lower resistance of potential trainees. High stress scores andconfidentiality often motivate employees to seek counselling, training,or both. The Personal Stress Assessment Inventory, which is selfscoringand comprehensive, was found to be an appropriate instrument with ahigh level of internal consistency and external validity.
