Managing Your Team's Health and Wellbeing The challenges of today’s world—global crises, economic uncertainty, and the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic—are taking a toll on employees' mental and physical health. Addressing this proactively through training can make a significant difference for both individuals and organisations. This course supports managers and employees alike to recognise early signs of mental health struggles, offer appropriate support, and create a healthy workplace environment.
Overview

Employee Wellbeing is More Important Than Ever

In the face of increasing stressors such as geopolitical instability, economic downturns, and the lasting effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, employee wellbeing is more important than ever. According to the CIPD and Workday’s ‘People Profession 2022 UK and Ireland’ survey, only 55% of UK and 42% of Irish employees rated their mental health as good or very good.

The current climate suggests that mental health concerns will continue to impact workforces globally. If left unaddressed, mental health issues can lead to burnout, absenteeism, reduced productivity, and a negative workplace culture.

This course provides the knowledge and skills needed to understand, address, and prevent mental health challenges in the workplace, ensuring employees feel supported, heard, and valued.

Importance of Training

Mental Health Training is Not an Optional Extra, It's Essential

Mental health training is not just an optional extra; it is an essential part of modern workplace culture. Research consistently shows that investing in employee mental health leads to greater engagement, productivity, and loyalty. A mentally healthy workforce is more likely to be creative, motivated, and effective. Furthermore, employees who feel supported in their mental health journey are more likely to stay with an organisation, reducing turnover costs and building a stronger sense of belonging.

By providing mental health training to your managers, organisations demonstrate a commitment to their employees' wellbeing, which has a positive impact on morale and overall organisational culture. Importantly, this training also helps to break down the stigma surrounding mental health, increasing awareness, encouraging open discussions and creating an environment where employees feel safe seeking support.

The cost of neglecting mental health is significant, with absenteeism, presenteeism, and high turnover rates all linked to unmanaged mental health issues. Early intervention can prevent these negative outcomes, leading to a more productive, supportive, and resilient workplace.
