Workplace Well-Being Online Seminar 2024

13 November 2024 • Online Half-day Seminar

Integrating Mental Health into Corporate Culture

Overview

As the workplace evolves, the mental health and well-being of employees have become increasingly critical. In 2024 alone, 77% of large employers reported a significant increase in mental health needs among their workforce​ (Business Group on Health). This trend has raised several key questions for HR leaders:

  • Are you struggling with higher absenteeism and lower productivity due to employee burnout?
  • Do you find that your mental health resources are underutilised despite their availability?
  • Is your organisation facing challenges in fostering an inclusive and supportive workplace culture?
  • Are you concerned about the stigma surrounding mental health that may prevent your employees from seeking help?

If these questions strike a chord, it’s clear that addressing these challenges is essential for the well-being of your employees and the success of your organisation.

Join us at our upcoming seminar on Workplace Well-Being, where we will tackle these issues head-on. Here’s what you can expect:

  1. Enhanced Understanding of Mental Health Trends and Landscapes
    Gain comprehensive insights into the most common mental health challenges faced by employees, and statistics on anxiety, depression, and burnout. Understand their impact on productivity, morale, and overall workplace dynamics.
  2. Effective Strategies for Mental Health Support
    Learn evidence-based strategies and best practices for supporting mental health in the workplace. This includes creating measurement-based models to enhance effective mental health interventions.
  3. Learn Strategies on how to conduct regular risk assessments to identify psychosocial workplace hazards that could lead to negative mental health impacts in the workplace
    Discover how addressing psychosocial workplace hazards can improve mental health, increase employee engagement, job satisfaction, and improve productivity. A mentally healthy workforce is more motivated, creative, and committed to their roles.
  4. Building a Positive Workplace Culture
    Explore ways to cultivate a workplace culture that values and supports mental health. Learn how to reduce stigma, encourage open conversations about mental health, and create a more inclusive and empathetic work environment.
  5. Promoting Long-Term Organisational Success
    Learn how prioritising mental health can lead to long-term organisational benefits, including reduced absenteeism, lower turnover rates, and enhanced reputation.

This seminar will equip you with the tools and knowledge to address these critical well-being challenges, ensuring your organisation fosters a healthier, more productive workforce.
