Mental Health organisation Mind is getting behind mental health in the workplace and has come up with an impressive campaign 'Taking Care of Business'.
Mind Workplace also provides consultancy and training for employers on mental health, enhancing productivity by improving business practices.
'Mind Workplace will enable your company to assess how mentally healthy it is for both employees and clients and support you to make any necessary changes to ensure you are managing mental health in a way that will maximise your company's potential.
We believe in a preventative approach to mental health problems in the workplace. This involves promoting mental health awareness, reducing stigma around seeking help, helping staff develop resilience, effective sickness management and emotionally intelligent management supervision.
Building on existing good practice such as employee assistance programmes and occupational health support, Mind Workplace will help you to develop a proactive and systematic approach to promoting good mental health in the workplace.

Why does your company need Mind Workplace?
In the past five years, employers have cited stress as the number one reason given by employees who take time off work.
Staff absence and lost productivity due to poor mental health management have an overall annual cost to employers of nearly £26 billion [1].
Healthy and happy workplaces result in reduced absence, increased productivity and greater customer satisfaction, leading to higher profit margins.
One in four people experience mental health problems in any five year period - therefore a significant proportion of your business's employees and customers will be experiencing mental health problems at the moment.
People with mental health problems are often overlooked by interventions aimed at improving accessibility of business services to people with physical disabilities.
Most firms vastly underestimate the problem but they could make big savings with a few simple steps.
