We are currently living through challenging, and some may say, insecure times with every day touched by the threat of political uncertainty, war, terrorism, the cost of living and financial insecurity at the forefront of people's anxiety. In an age when everything is being turned upside down and questioned there has never been a more important time to put mental health at the top of the agenda.
Whether you are the CEO, MD, HR Director, Trainee or Canteen Assistant you will be aware of the impact that mental health can have on your company. If you are in any doubt about the importance of good mental health at work here are some stats that may change your mind:
15.8 million work hours are lost each yer because of mental health issues including stress, anxiety, depression as well as more serious conditions such as bipolar disorder and schizophrenia.
25% year on year increase of the number of days taken off work because of mental health issues.
Last year over half a million Brits suffered from stress at work resulting in an average of 24 days lost per worker at a cost of £5billion.
This talk focuses on the importance of mental health in the work place and the coping strategies drawn from a mental health toolkit using a unique dashboard of dials. It shows both employers and employees how to stay mentally well, through personal empowerment and encouraging those suffering from poor mental health to get well and stay well thought their own efforts and those of their colleagues.
