The research method was quasi-experimental pre-test-post-test with control and follow-up groups. The statistical population was the employees of Sazeh Gostar Saipa Company in 1398. Among them, 60 people were selected by available methods and randomly assigned to two groups of mindfulness and control training. Data collection tools were the Occupational Stress Questionnaire of the British Institute of Health and Safety (1993), the Reef Psychological Welfare Questionnaire (1989) and the Work-Family Conflict Questionnaire of Carlson et al. (2000). The experimental group received mindfulness intervention based on Kabat-Zayn model (2015) in 8 sessions of 60 minutes each and the control group did not receive any intervention. Two months after the end of the sessions, follow-up was done from both groups. Data analysis was performed using repeated measures combined analysis of variance. Findings showed that mindfulness skills training has been effective in reducing job stress and work-family conflict of employees and increasing their psychological well-being(P<0.05).
