Employee Mental Health in the Workplace
Our workplaces play a larger role in our mental health than we often like to admit. From the stress of shortened timelines to conflicts with coworkers and clients that make us uncomfortable, to the tensions around costs, profits, losses, and job security, it’s safe to say that our work can be a major stressor. Workplaces are an essential part of relieving that stress through compassion, communication, support, and structure. In this course, you’ll learn about the role leaders play in improving and maintaining workplace mental health, different tools and strategies to manage and guide performance in positive and supportive ways, and how to support employees through challenges and recovery, so your workplace can be healthier and safer every day.
