Delivering an Employee Benefit people actually want ➡️ Prevention and early detection in Cancer and Chronic Disease 🧬 I help HR & People Leaders make a positive difference to their people and business 📈
£51,000,000,000 💷 That’s a big number and I had to count the 0s 🫨 51 billion. That’s the cost of poor mental health to UK employers 🤯 From the latest Deloitte report on Mental Health. Surprisingly the return on spend for employers is still MASSIVE when we look at the numbers. £4.7 for every £1 spent on mental health support. From my experience, it’s not that employers are against providing mental health benefits to employees. It’s rather that they aren’t sure on what to provide and when. What do you think? Are you seeing something different? 👀 #mentalhealth and wellbeing has never been more important, scrap that, it’s never been more critical to an employers #employeewellbeing strategy than now.

An important point from BACP ⬇️
Mental health must be a priority at this General Election. In the run up to election day, we’ll be stepping up our campaigning. We'll be highlighting the need for investment and action that will improve access to therapy and expand paid opportunities for therapists. We’ll continue to demonstrate why and how the next Government must increase funding for accessible mental health support in the NHS, schools, community organisations and workplaces.

BUSINESS LEADERS ➡️ If you have an employee assistance programme (EAP) you should read this article. There is a lot of misunderstanding when it comes to an EAP in the workplace. Being clear on what an EAP service offers is critical to any workplace wellbeing strategy so you can communicate it at the right time, in the right way. A great read from BACP.
