This study identified instruments that can assist organizations in implementing an integrated approach to workplace mental health. The scoping review identified 207 instruments, with 109 meeting eligibility criteria. Most instruments were relevant to the 'prevent harm' domain, while instruments relevant to the 'promote the positive' and 'respond to problems' were limited. Further development of instruments for these domains is needed.
This study aimed to identify instruments that may assist organizations with implementing an integrated approach to workplace mental health using three activities from the knowledge to action (KTA) framework. A scoping review of published and grey literature, supported by stakeholder (business end-user and researcher) consultation, identified work-specific instruments that were relevant to at least one of the three domains of an integrated approach to workplace mental health: 'prevent harm', 'promote the positive', and 'respond to problems'. A total of 207 instruments were located, and 109 instruments met eligibility criteria. 10 instruments were located that were relevant to multiple domains, however most instruments (n = 72) were relevant to the 'prevent harm' domain. Instruments relevant to the 'promote the positive' (n = 14) and 'respond to problems' (n = 13) domains were limited. Most instruments found were suitable for the 'monitor, review and improve' KTA activity. Further development of instruments that can assist with 'promote the positive' and 'respond to problems' strategies are required, specifically those instruments that can assist organizations with the 'identify gaps and opportunities' and 'identify priorities and design new/enhanced interventions' KTA activities.
