We are one of nine leading UK safety, health and wellbeing organisations who have formed an alliance to address the biggest risks in the workplace. We’ve published a report on ‘Prioritising mental health in the workplace’ which has clear calls to action for employers, Government and the OSH profession. If you work in health, safety and wellbeing and want to know more about how to better support people’s mental health at work, see the full paper here: https://ow.ly/ITY650THFOW #MentalHealthMatters

Commenting on a new paper we’ve published with the OSH Stakeholder Alliance, on ‘Prioritising mental health in the workplace’, our chairman Peter McGettrick says: “Supporting people’s mental health at work means going further than just complying with the law. Employers have a vital role to play in breaking through stigma, talking about issues openly with staff, and making sure that support is there to help prevent issues before they occur. Only then can we begin to tackle the growing mental health issues affecting individuals, their families and wider society.” Check it out here: https://ow.ly/y3jI50THEpq #MentalHealthMatters
