Mental health in the workplace: good practice and the law - digital event

The law and best practice surrounding mental health in the workplace, including how to use the Acas framework for positive mental health at work

Recent research from Deloitte has found that the cost of poor mental health to employers has increased from £45bn in 2019, to £56bn in 2020-21.

Whilst many of the reasons behind poor mental health will not be work-related, evidence shows that employers who reduce stigma, improve management capability and increase self-support help their employees to remain productive and stay in work. 

This event provides an insight into the range of mental health conditions and gives delegates an understanding of the relevant legislation and benefits of promoting positive mental health.

It will also cover the Acas framework for positive mental health; a holistic model which details the key responsibilities of the employer, the manager and the individual in contributing to healthy and productive workplaces.

Mental health in the workplace: skills for managers - split day digital event

Practical skills to enable managers to effectively manage mental health in the workplace

According to the Mental Health Foundation, one in six employees experience mental ill health each year. A study by Business in the Community found that only 14% of those that had experienced work-related poor mental health had spoken to their managers.

Whilst the reasons behind mental ill health are not always work related, managers need to know how to address it. They may fear saying the wrong thing or making matters worse but early intervention is key. It provides opportunity for the manager and the individual to discuss the support they might need to stay in work, benefiting the individual, the team and the organisation. 

Delegates attending this event will gain an understanding of the different mental ill health conditions and learn how to effectively engage with staff at an early stage. The event will also cover the Acas framework for positive mental health; a holistic model which describes the key responsibilities of all parties contributing to healthy and productive workplaces.
