World Mental Health Day - 10 October 2024 Around half of work-related ill health is down to stress, depression or anxiety - those suffering with their mental health on average will 19.6 days off work a year So why prioritise good mental health and prevent work-related stress? 1) it’s the law 2) it’s good for business 3) it’s the right thing to do The law requires all employers to prevent work-related stress and support good mental health in the workplace. The HSE's Working Minds campaign can help advise how to manage mental health in the workplace. For further information visit https://lnkd.in/eNiEcMfa

SSIP Frequently asked Questions: "I don't understand the levels offered by SSIP member schemes and what it means for me - I am only a small contractor" Some schemes offer extended products covering requirements of PAS91 or the Common Assessment Standard which are outside of health and safety. There is no need to upgrade to additional services if you only need a H&S assessment. If you require further information, please don't hesitate to contact us. #SSIP #healthandsafety #procurement #supplychains #proportionate
