description INTRODUCTION: An understanding of the mental health awareness programmes among workforces in low/middle-income countries (LMICs) is lacking significantly in literature. Such understanding is crucial for the employers, government agencies and other stakeholders to initiate strategies to promote mental health and well-being at the workplace. OBJECTIVE: The main aim of this study is to conduct a scoping review to systematically map the research on the mental health awareness programmes among workforces in LMICs. METHODS: A comprehensive search strategy for the articles published between 2000 and 2022 will be conducted in MEDLINE, PubMed, EBSCOhost, Wiley Online Library, Cochrane and JSTOR. Various study designs such as randomised control trials, non-randomised control trials, systematic reviews, scoping reviews and observational studies that report evidence on mental health awareness programmes among workforce in LMICs will be identified through specific strategy. Search outcomes will be exported to Endnote and duplication of studies will be removed. From the list of included studies, data such as characteristics of mental health programmes, common outcome measures and domains, and motivations underlying the establishment of existing mental health awareness programmes will be extracted and analysed. ANALYSIS: The search outcomes will be presented in a Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses flow chart. The characteristics of the research studies on mental health programmes will be outlined using tables. The various outcome domains and outcome measures reported in the studies will be presented in a bubble chart showing different outcome measures categorised and collated under a specific outcome domain. The findings on the motivations and justifications underlying the establishment of mental health awareness programmes will be summarised using a thematic analysis. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/WPURK.
