Organizations have to continually audit their systems to identify high job demands and promote job control to help workers better cope with work stressors. In order to better manage work stress and mental health in the workplace, organizations need to situate the individual at the centre of their employee assistance programs. It was, however, found that active coping went a long way in attenuating the effects of depression on the individuals through its mediating processes. Persons with high levels of stress also reported poor life satisfaction. Through this study and situating the individual as the main player, we found that high job demands, indeed, contributed to physical health symptoms and mental health outcomes such as depression. As workers spend most of their lives in the workplace, it is arguable that such environments play a critical role in shaping the state of their minds and drive, perceptions, reactions and responses to the stressors even beyond the workplace.

Organizations have had to continuously institute programs to enhance internal integration and external adaptation in a bid to stay afloat due to the challenges brought about by the economy. Workers, particularly in Zimbabwe, have been at the receiving end of incessant organizational change and restructuring processes.
