Today is World Mental Health Day, and this year's theme is ‘Mental health is a universal human right.’ Most of us spend a vast amount of time at work, so it is crucial that the office is a space that’s conducive to positive mental well-being – be that a physical/virtual office, or “the office” as a group of people working together. Work by groups such as Mental Health Foundation and MindForward Alliance UK (formerly City Mental Health Alliance) have set the bar for creating positive workplaces and empowering leaders to oversee transformative change. Vista Health believes strongly that by prioritising the well-being of employees, we can build a company culture in which people thrive and don’t dive. It is essential to have an open dialogue about mental health in the workplace so that any issues don’t go unnoticed. Below are some of the actions we encourage in the workplace to foster a positive culture. We hope this not only benefits our employees but also encourages a culture of ambition, innovation and excellence. #WorldMentalHealthDay #MentalHealthMatters #VistaHealth #Healthcare #MentalHealth

The 2022–2023 Annual Report from the Office of the Ombud for Mental Health and Employee Well-Being is now available. Throughout that year, the Office of the Ombud focused on connecting with various ISED communities and networks to raise awareness of Ombud services and to better understand members’ needs. Collaboratively, the team addressed workplace issues brought forth by employees, working toward effective solutions. The report presents the Office of the Ombud’s achievements and insights, as well as three recommendations for improving workplace dynamics and addressing community members’ needs. Want to learn more?

A recent study by the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) found that fewer than 1 in 3 employers view mental health support for employees as a high priority. For those who don’t offer mental health resources, such as employee assistance programs (EAPs), reasons range from simply not considering them to being uncertain about which benefits to provide. At Gravie, we believe no one should face administrative or financial barriers between them and their mental well-being. It’s why we designed our Comfort plan to put our members’ total wellness first. It’s why members receive no-cost access to in-network office visits for mental health care, just as they do for any specialist under their plan, as well as no-cost virtual mental health care through our partnership with Teladoc. Your employees deserve support for their mental health, and your business deserves support for delivering it. We're here to help. #WorldMentalHealthDay

"My employer would never pay for me to have therapy..." Are you sure about that? Too often I learn that employees have no idea what mental health support their employer provides. Whether it’s part of an Employee Assistance Programme, tucked away in your Benefits Package or accessible through a company such Thrive Mental Wellbeing, it's worth learning what therapy options are available to you. And when these services promise full confidentiality, you can trust that your employer won't be informed. Don't wait until you're overwhelmed; seek support early. #MentalHealthSupport #employeewellbeing
