NCT ID NCT05641987
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a program where elementary school teachers work together to identify and solve workplace health and safety issues. About 4,000 school staff from six schools will participate. The goal is to see if this approach lowers stress, anxiety, depression, and burnout while improving overall well-being.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Healthy Workplace Participatory Program (a behavioral program where teachers design their own wellness interventions)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could point toward a practical way to reduce teacher stress, burnout, and improve well-being in schools.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-stage behavioral study with no blinding or placebo, so results may be influenced by expectations. The program's success depends on each school's implementation, and benefits may not apply to all teachers.
