Today is World Mental Health Day 🌎💗 World Mental Health Day shines a spotlight on the significant impact workplaces have on mental health, with one in six Australian workers currently living with a mental illness (according to the Black Dog Institute). Work-related stress is often caused by factors such as poor relationships at work, unclear roles, lack of recognition, bullying, and poor working conditions. These issues can lead to psychological harm and, in some cases, physical symptoms as well. In the past, addressing only individual concerns, without considering the overall workplace environment, has failed to eliminate these risks or provide adequate support for employees. Businesses that invest in mental health benefit from greater productivity, a competitive advantage in attracting and retaining talent, and improved overall performance. For employees, this leads to a healthier work-life balance and improved mental wellbeing. SAWIA encourages taking proactive steps in improving mental health in the workplace. How can SAWIA help? SAWIA members who are interested in creating mentally healthier workplaces can contact us to review or develop policies for your workplace. We can also recommend mental health training providers in your area. Let's work together to prioritise mental health in the South Australian wine industry. More info visit: https://lnkd.in/gCCbtMmE
