You will become an employer of choice, making it easier to recruit and retain the best talent.

We work with your Executive Leadership to explain the benefits and risks associated with investing in the mental wealth of employees and help create evidence-based strategies that integrate mental health & wellbeing into other business critical policies.

There are many sources of data that can help you determine how well you are doing in relation to employee wellbeing and mental health, absence records, engagement with your Employee Assistance Programme engagement, personal injury claims etc.  But the most powerful source of data is your employees themselves.  How do they perceive your organisation?  

Consulting with your employees, determining their current mental health & wellbeing and understanding of the subject are key to developing an effective strategy.  It is also a great, early way to let people know that you take their wellbeing seriously and to baseline your organisation so you can monitor the impacts of your programmes. 

We can offer you a wide range of evidence-based tools and analysis to develop bespoke strategies that will help all your employees to thrive.

We can also create bespoke courses to meet the specific needs of your organisation to ensure they match your company culture and language, and to ensure they fit with your core messages.  All training is based on current, evidence-based practice.
