2. INTRODUCTION
As we learnt from Module 5, not only drivers have to work on the
prevention of stress related to work , but also employers/managers .
The regional sickness insurance funds of the Ile-de-France region (Paris
region), CRAMIF, implemented various work stress prevention initiatives
and proposes to companies on a voluntary basis a methodology to
accompany companies in finding solutions to implement measures to
fight stress at work.
Besides, it is presently implementing actions, sector by sector, to
enhance training related to psychosocial risks in companies.
The methodology presented is that of based on a voluntary basis to
prevent stress at the workplace. 1
3. DESCRIPTION
This participative approach helps the company in measuring the
stress felt by the employees, identifying the working elements
being at the origin of stress and to propose solutions to reduce
the sources of stress.
The approach is based on the participation of all the employees of
the company (or of one representative sample) and is
anonymous.
Before entering practically into the different steps of the
procedure, a first meeting is organized gathering:
• A CRAMIF expert in charge of the accompanying
procedure
• The Director or his/her representative
• The Health and safety Department representatives
• Employees representatives
They will discuss and share opinions. At the end they should
elaborate jointly, the organisational & psychosocial diagnosis

4. DESCRIPTION
Basically the procedure is the following:
PHASE 1: Creation of a working group and theoritical framework
presentation
The role of the working group is to communicate about the
approach and make the employees aware of its positive
consequences. Besides, its aim is to follow the evolution of the
study and to validate every stage, to participate in the results
gathering and implementation of solutions
PHASE 2: Company presentation and data analysis (2 months)
A meeting should be foreseen (at least two hours), where
the company data should be presented especially these
concerning organisation , number of sick leaves, turnover
etc…
The study should bring interpretative elements of the
results of the extensive survey. The information collected
during this phase allows also to determine the appropriate
independent variables, in function of particular hypotheses
relative to the sources of stress and to their localization in
1
specific groups of workers (age, sexe, seniority, job).
5. DESCRIPTION
PHASE 3: Real work conditions observations and employees
interviews
Real conditions of work willbe observed without siturbing
