MENTALLY HEALTHY WORKPLACES

If you've ever worked in a challenging workplace, you'll have seen the negative impact that it has on workplace performance and employee health. Employee turnover and absenteeism are high, quality of output (because of a lack of care) is low, and people dread coming to work.

Mental health is a growing area in the field of Work/Occupational Health and Safety. Trauma and suicide are increasingly being linked to the practice of managers, leaders and workplaces, and litigation and compliance expectations are increasing.

Rather than taking a reactive (incident-response) approach, we know that the health of a workplace is inherently linked to its culture. We are passionate about 'work' being a meaningful and positive experience, and seeing workplaces that meet the needs and expectations of all staff.

We can do the following:

Undertake team/organisational assessments to identify your work climate
Create an organisational development plan specifically focused on mental health
Coach and train leaders and managers in leadership behaviours for mental health
Support the embedding and implementation of initiatives, including behaviour change
Refer to partner psychologists in the instance of trauma and/or acute incidents (this works particularly well alongside life/performance coaching)
