Workplace Wellbeing & Mental Health At Work
It makes good business sense to proactively protect the wellbeing of your teams by creating a working environment where people flourish.
Sickness absence due to mental ill health costs the UK economy more than £8bn per year, according to the Centre for Mental Health charity, while the cost of reduced productivity from those suffering from mental ill health who turn up to work (presenteeism) is a further £15bn every year.
Supporting people to feel and perform at their best will boost the output of your teams – and profit your business. Benefits can include a reduction in staff turnover and a reduction in staff recruitment costs, as today’s employees seek out employers who offer more than simply a salary.
As an experienced mental health professional, I am committed to addressing your specific workplace challenges using tools which will make the biggest difference for your employees and your business. These are chosen specifically for your organisation based on discussion with you and input from your employees through our ‘check in with yourself’ survey
