Mental Health & Disability Awareness
How effective can it be to improve mental health in the workplace?
In an interview with the Guardian, Dr Paul Litchfield talks about the BT's achievements...
"We have seen a 30% reduction in mental health sickness absence since we started tackling these issues a few years ago. That represents the difference between having 650-700 people a day off with stress, depression, and anxiety to our current level of 550-600. The benefits to the bottom line of the business are easy to appreciate in terms of productivity and reduced absenteeism, but we also recognise that a happier, healthier workforce will be a more productive one generally."

workplace mental health is to ensure staff have up to date information.
