N2 - Anger, stress, and depression in the workplace are growing concerns among management. Traditionally, health outcomes have functioned under the realm of workplace health professionals. This study assessed whether a traditional worksite health promotion program had an impact on mental health factors. The results suggested that worksite health promotion programs play a limited role in ameliorating work-related mental health outcomes. Rather, management must play a greater role in addressing workplace stress, anger, and depression.
