Mental Health at Work for Managers

Stress, anxiety and depression are serious health hazards in the workplace. They account for 51% of all new and longstanding cases of work-related ill-health.

According to the UK's Health and Safety Executive (HSE) statistics, 828,000 cases of work-related stress, depression or anxiety were recorded between 2019 and 2020, resulting in the loss of 17.9 million working days.

Our Mental Health at Work Online Course will help your employees spot the signs of stress, understand the causes of stress and how to combat it.

We also have a Managing Mental Health at Work course.
