Mental health in the workplace

It’s a fact that more and more employers are beginning to understand the importance of managing mental health in the workplace.

After all, at any moment one in six people in the UK and Ireland are suffering at work with symptoms of a mental health condition.

That’s one in six people. And those are just the numbers we know about.

The consequences of poor mental health awareness at work means countless more people could be struggling. This could include long term mental health problems with your own employees.

Worse yet, countless could be going unnoticed. That’s where we can help.
