Description

Mental health is as important as physical health, and it affects all aspects of our lives, including our personal and professional life. With 1 in 4 people in the UK experiencing mental health problems each year, it's essential to have a better understanding of this topic. Imagine being able to recognise the signs of mental health problems in yourself or others, and having the tools to support and manage these issues. That's precisely what you'll gain from enrolling in our course.

This course is designed to provide you with a comprehensive understanding of mental health, including mood disorders, personality disorders, eating disorders, and more. You'll also learn about stress and anxiety disorders, self-harm and suicide, and mental health in the workplace.

By the end of the course, you'll have the necessary knowledge and skills to identify and manage mental health problems and support others.

Significance of Mental Health Awareness in the Workplace:

Mental health is a crucial aspect of employee well-being and productivity in the UK corporate sector as well. Here are some key statistics highlighting the impact of mental health on the workplace from a UK perspective:

  • Mental health problems are the leading cause of sickness absence in the UK, with over 70 million workdays lost each year due to mental health issues, costing employers approximately £2.4 Billion annually (Centre for Mental Health).

  • Approximately 1 in 6 people of working age in the UK experience mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, or stress-related conditions (Mental Health Foundation).

  • Research conducted by Deloitte in the UK found that the return on investment (ROI) for workplace mental health interventions is positive, with an average ROI of 5:1 - meaning that for every £1 invested in mental health initiatives, there is a return of £5 in improved productivity and reduced costs associated with mental health-related absenteeism and turnover.

  • According to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), work-related stress, depression, or anxiety accounted for 51% of all work-related ill-health cases and 55% of all working days lost due to work-related ill-health in the UK in recent years.

  • It is estimated that 300,000 people with long-term mental health conditions lose their jobs each year in the UK, which is 50% higher than the rate for those with physical health conditions (Thriving at Work Report, Stevenson/Farmer Review).

  • A study by the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD) found that 37% of UK workers reported feeling stressed or under excessive pressure at work for a significant portion of their time.

These statistics emphasise the importance of addressing mental health in the UK corporate sector.

By investing in mental health initiatives, companies can create a healthier, more engaged, and productive workforce while reducing the financial impact associated with mental health-related issues.
