Mental Health & Wellbeing: A Line Manager's Guide

Mental health can affect an individual’s performance and interactions in every area of their lives including the workplace. Awareness of the scale and impact of mental health problems at work is increasing and regardless of the causes it is likely that organisations and their members will have to deal with the symptoms and implications both in themselves and their colleagues.

The guide has a range of information and practical advice on recruitment, wellbeing, disclosure as well as a large reference section directing employers to where there is expertise from a range of specialist organisations and online resources that can offer further assistance. The guide can help managers facilitate conversations about mental health problems, understand what issues may arise and put in place support so employees can stay well and in work – meaning they perform at their best and the employer retains talent and expertise.
