1 in 4 people will experience a mental health problem in any given year so it is inevitable that, at some point in your working life, you will be employing someone suffering from a mental health problem.

A 2010 survey undertaken by the Shaw Trust found that 72% of workplaces had no formal mental wellbeing policy. In addition to this, 23% of managers were unable to name a single mental health condition.

The purpose of the attached downloadable guide is to help your organisation produce an effective workplace mental well-being strategy tailored to your needs and wishes. The guide covers plans of what you will do and how you will do it in order to prevent, recognize and tackle mental health issues relevant to your business.
