How do I manage Mental Health & Wellbeing in the workplace

According to the HSE, half of all work-related ill health is caused by stress, depression or anxiety.

Whether work is causing a health issue or aggravating it, as an employer, you have a legal responsibility to help employees. You can provide Employee Assistance Plans, but how can you identify the problem as it develops?

Here’s how BCarm E Learning can help you identify and manage Mental Health &  Wellbeing issues in the workplace.

E Learning Module

Our Health & Safety E-Learning system includes our standard E-Learning pack, which covers key safety risks commonly encountered by businesses, as well as GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) compliance training.

• Included in this pack is our Stress Awareness course.

This interactive course is designed to increase awareness of stress, its causes, and its effects on well-being and workplace productivity. It provides learners with practical strategies to manage their own stress and support others.

Our standard E-Learning pack can be expanded with additional safety courses or our Compliance & Soft Skills package. To view the full range of available courses, click here.

E Learning Self-Risk Assessments

BCarm’s E Learning System comprises three components:

• The tutorial
• The competency test
• The self-assessment

The self-assessment can be fully customised to reflect your specific workplace environment and can include targeted questions on stress for employees who have completed the Stress Awareness course.

Employee responses can offer valuable insights and trigger alerts, helping management identify potential issues early and take informed, proactive steps.
