Course

Managing Mental Health at Work is a one-day course for people managers, supported by an extended programme of learning

Stress is now the NUMBER 1 cause of workplace absence in the UK. Managers have a pivotal role to play in reducing the impact of work-related stress and mental health problems.

And yet managers often feel poorly equipped to take a proactive approach to wellbeing at work and support staff effectively when needed.

Managers spend significant amounts of time managing absence, and even more dealing with the effects of presenteeism (staff at work but not fully functioning).

Anyone with a responsibility for managing others – including senior, middle and frontline managers, team leaders or supervisors – would benefit from attendance.
