This research investigated the moderating role of self-compassion (SC) on variables associated with cognitive behavioral stress management (CBSM) in workplace settings. Employees (N=600 Mean age 46.5±10.4 years, 466 men and 134 women) participated in this study, which assessed SC, perspectives on contextual evaluation of the work environment, coping, stress responses, and job performance. Participants scoring 0.5 standard deviations above the SC mean were classified as the high SC group, whereas those scoring below this threshold formed the low SC group. Multiple group analyses were conducted to evaluate SC’s moderating effects on workplace CBSM variables, including contextual evaluations of the work environment, coping, stress responses, and job performance. Results indicated that employees in the high SC group demonstrated enhanced job performance when they adopted coping strategies informed by contextual evaluations of their workplace environment. These findings suggest that integrating SC-enhancing techniques into traditional workplace CBSM programs may decrease stress responses and improve job performance.
