Why Employee Mental Health Matters
In the field of Health and Safety, there will always be a large focus on the wellbeing of our workforce. However, immediate physical threats often take the forefront of this focus, but it’s always good to remember the “health” side of it too. Mental health is just as important as physical health. This program will cover the effects that poor mental health can have on a person, what to look out for, resources available and why it is so important to the industry and your company as whole.
