Workplace Wellbeing Toolbox Workshop - Half Day
|
Course Outline
What is it like to be ‘working well’ – as an individual, a workplace, a community? How does your workplace affect your mental health?
There is much talk of ‘stress’ in the workplace. High levels of workplace stress and poor workplace responses to it are damaging employee wellbeing.
The Work Wellbeing toolbox covers a variety of topics to help develop and support mentally healthy workplaces.
This toolbox includes information on ‘mentally healthy workplaces’, managing difficulties within the workplace and other mental health issues. There are several tips and suggestions on how to look after your own mental wellbeing.
