40% of workplaces still do not offer any mental health support for staff and less than a quarter of line managers have received any training in mental health. Only a third of 18 to 29-year-olds are comfortable talking with their manager about mental health issues compared to almost half of people in their 40s.
Equip staff to deal with mental healthIf line managers were better trained in dealing with mental health, they would be able to proactively manage and support their employees. Arm employees with the skills and confidence to recognise and support anyone dealing with mental stress. Mental Health First Aid is the mental health equivalent of physical first aid. The training is an internationally recognised and accredited two-day course developed by Mental Health First Aid England. It is designed to raise awareness of mental health and reduce the stigma surrounding mental health issues. The course will provide employees with the knowledge to identify the symptoms of mental health issues, effectively support anyone dealing with mental stress and guide people towards the appropriate professional help.
