What is Mental Health ?

Показать описание

This video is aimed at providing a straightforward introduction to mental health. At Mental Health at Work, we believe that understanding mental health and having common language to use when we talk about it, will help to remove the stigma in our workplaces.

One in four adults experiences at least one diagnosable mental health problem in any given year. 9 out of 10 people who experience mental health problems say that they face stigma and discrimination as a result. Poor mental health in the workplace costs the UK an estimated £26billion a year.

Recognising stress and mental health problems is not easy. Employees may take time off for odd reasons, be unproductive or unhappy at work, but the hard part is doing something about it and that is where Mental Health at Work can help managers by training them to start the conversation with a common language and literacy around mental health.
