COVID 19 and Mental Wellness

Distant But Not Divided: Keeping Safe, Happy, and Sane at Home and Work in Trying Times

Could your employees be feeling blue as we head into 2021?
They’re not alone … but there is a distinction between “the blues” and depression or other conditions that may pose a mental health challenge and require treatment, or which could impact workplace safety. Moreover, COVID-19 not only has impacted the mental health crisis in our country but also has contributed to escalating substance abuse that also can impact workplace safety, workplace violence, and enforcement of HR policies. This webinar will address the broad range of mental health, suicide and substance abuse issues in the workplace that are correlated with COVID-19 precautions or the illness itself, implications under the ADA and OSHA/MSHA requirements, and outline best practices for companies to follow in assisting their workers through education, EAPs and other referral programs, and supervisory awareness.
