Background:

Stress symptoms pose a significant challenge in industrial work environments.
Secondary prevention interventions are crucial for managing psychological well-being.
Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) is effective for preventing depressive relapse.

Purpose of the Study:

To implement and assess a pilot secondary prevention program for stress symptom reduction.
To adapt the MBCT protocol for a non-clinical, industrial workforce.
To evaluate the program's impact on stress and associated symptoms.

Main Methods:

Development of adapted MBCT teaching materials focusing on mindfulness, cognition, and psycho-education.
Conducting a controlled and randomized experimental trial.
Testing the program on a non-clinical population in an industrial setting.

Main Results:

The adapted program demonstrated preliminary positive effects on workers' psychic health.
The mindfulness-meditation-cognition-psycho-education triptych proved effective in the adapted model.
The study provides initial evidence for the program's benefits in reducing stress symptoms.

Conclusions:

The adapted MBCT program shows promise as an intervention for stress reduction in industrial workers.
Further research is warranted to confirm the long-term benefits for occupational mental health.
This intervention offers a novel approach to secondary prevention in workplace settings.
