The Employment Law & HR Podcast

In this episode 180 of the podcast I bring you my practical top tips for managing mental health in the workplace.

These are my practical tips which I recommend all employers implement in their business or organisation.

Promoting good mental health practices and wellbeing need not be difficult and in this episode I breakdown into some easy steps to follow.

In this episode of the podcast I cover:

  • How to prevent issues from arising as a result of work.
  • The importance of being aware and well informed.
  • How to spot the warning signs among colleagues.
  • Why the best managers really know their staff.
  • Why open communication about mental health is critical.
  • How to create a culture of openness and support.
  • Why you should give meaningful consideration to reasonable adjustments.
  • Practical ideas you can implement with limited resources.
