Why Mental Health matters in the workplace.
Employee mental well-being is often neglected, concealed by stigma or fear of discrimination. This culture of silence comes at a high cost for employers. Research indicates that it’s time for businesses to address this issue.
By investing in Mental Health First Aiders, you take the first step in fostering a proactive approach to employee happiness and well-being. Creating an open and positive mental health culture is essential for your workforce’s overall health and productivity. At PeopleUnboxed, we go the extra mile by including soft skills training to equip your employees with the ability to talk openly about mental health.
