We have all heard the statistics many times before. 1 in 5 people will typically have a mental health episode of some form during their lifetime. This "episode" just doesn't happen at home but obviously can have a large impact at the workplace. As such, all workplaces need to work on their employee's mental health and implement policies and procedures to help workers manage their mental health effectively and maintain active and productive employment.

This website (called Heads Up) provides workplaces with a variety of tools and resources to help businesses create mentally healthy workplaces. Even if you think all is good at your workplace the below website might surprise you. Check it out!!
