Creating Positive
Mental Health Workplaces

We use diagnostic tools including interactive feedback and interviews with team members at all levels to provide qualitative and quantitative measures of the current state of mental health across the whole organisation. We review HR policies and procedures to ensure that positive mental health practices are embedded throughout.

We report back on our findings and use them to create a step-by-step plan to embed positive mental health strategies across the whole organisation, ensuring all employee touchpoints are incorporated across the complete career lifecycle. This is shared and reviewed with key stakeholders.

We work with individuals across every team in the business to develop positive mental health language, increase confidence about workplace mental health and encourage everyone to recognise the importance of good mental health for themselves, their colleagues and the organisation. We do this through a range of strategies including awareness workshops, e-learning courses, training Mental Health First Aiders and introducing our email and phone line support.

We help Mental Health First Aiders to keep the positive mental health culture alive by providing them with monthly briefing packs on different topics to share with their teams. They can also contact our dedicated team for advice and support when they need it. We organise regular Reflective Practice groups, where team members come together with a member of our clinical team to share their experiences of workplace mental health and talk about coping strategies and success stories. We provide specific dedicated confidential support by telephone and e-mail for senior leaders.

We feedback to Project Sponsors at regular intervals, providing evidence of positive outcomes and advising suitable next steps for the whole organisation.
