As an employer, it's vital to prioritise the mental health of your team in the workplace. Regardless of role or position, every individual deserves access to the support necessary for their mental well-being. With changes to the Commonwealth Work Health and Safety Act 2011 (WHS Act), employers now have a legal obligation to ensure the mental health and well-being of their staff. Simply put, it's the employer's responsibility to safeguard mental and emotional safety, just like physical safety. A workplace that fosters employee mental health not only attracts the right talent but also reduces costs, boosts productivity, and lowers turnover rates.
