Mental health in the workplace: skills for managers - two 3hr sessions over two consecutive days
|
Practical skills to enable managers to confidently and effectively promote and support positive mental health and wellbeing in the workplace
Mental health, much like physical health, can fluctuate throughout our lives; however, mental health can still be viewed as a taboo subject at work. Managers sometimes fear saying the wrong thing and making matters worse, but early intervention is key. It provides an opportunity for the manager and the individual to discuss appropriate support to help them stay in, or return to work. Being able to discuss mental health comfortably and openly benefits the individual, the team and the business.
Delegates attending this event will gain an understanding of what impacts mental health and wellbeing, as well as specific mental ill health conditions. They will learn how to effectively engage with staff at an early stage and gain practical knowledge of carrying out wellbeing conversations.
The event also covers the application of the Acas framework for positive mental health, a holistic model which describes the key responsibilities of all parties contributing to healthy and productive workplaces. Based on the knowledge gained during the event, delegates will be able to apply practical strategies in their workplace.
