    Background:

    • Industrial counseling and mental health are increasingly critical in developed nations.
    • Limited large-scale research exists due to a lack of governmental regulation and accreditation for industrial counseling services and professionals.
    • Despite these limitations, some companies have proactively implemented in-house counseling programs.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the current state and practices of counseling within industrial settings.
    • To analyze how counselor backgrounds influence their approaches to industrial counseling.
    • To identify and discuss different types of industrial counseling based on counselor qualifications.

    Main Methods:

    • A questionnaire was distributed to 1385 enterprises with over 500 employees.
    • A response rate of 52.8% was achieved, with 25.8% of respondents indicating they offer counseling services.
    • Counselors were categorized into four groups based on their educational background: medical, psychological, nurse, and lay counselors.

    Main Results:

    • Significant differences were observed in the responses of the four counselor groups regarding counseling systems, duties, techniques, training, and client interactions.
    • The study identified four distinct types of industrial counseling, differentiated by the counselors' professional backgrounds.
    • Counselor's educational background was found to be a key determinant in their counseling practices within industrial environments.

    Conclusions:

    • The findings highlight the impact of counselor qualifications on the delivery of industrial counseling services.
    • The study provides a foundation for developing standardized systems and accreditation for industrial counseling.
    • Further research is recommended to build upon these insights and advance the field of workplace mental health support.
