Objective: The purpose of this study was to effectiveness of comprehensive stress management training on depression symptoms and psychosomatic symptoms in employees. Methods: The design of the study was quasi experimental, and of pretest-posttest-with-control group kind. The population of the study included all employees of Iranian National Drilling Company and the sample included 30 employees that selected via randomly sampling method that were involved in two groups: experimental (15 employees) and control (15 employees). The instruments that used in this study were Beck ҆s depression index (BDI-II) and Moher psychosomatic symptoms in nonclinical context. The experimental groups were taught comprehensive stress management training (individual an organizational interventions) for eleven 60-minute sessions. Findings: Multi-variable covariance (Mancova) analyze showed that there was a significant difference among two groups in the case of depression symptoms and psychosomatic symptoms (p< 0/001). Conclusion: Results of this study showed that comprehensive stress management training decreased depression symptoms and psychosomatic symptoms of employees. Thus this training method can be used for target groups and general population as an interventional program.
