BENEFITS FOR WORKPLACES
Good mental health makes economic sense. Sickness absence, ‘presenteeism’ at work, staff turnover and unemployment - due to mental ill health - cost £110bn.
Enhanced Employee Well-being:
MHFA training equips employees with the skills to identify, understand, and respond to signs of mental health issues. This proactive approach helps in addressing mental health concerns early, leading to better overall well-being among employees.
Reduced Stigma and Increased Awareness:
By promoting open discussions about mental health, MHFA training reduces the stigma associated with mental health issues. It fosters a supportive environment where employees feel comfortable seeking help and discussing mental health openly.
Improved Workplace Culture:
A supportive and understanding workplace culture is developed when employees and managers are trained in MHFA. This positive culture enhances teamwork, communication, and trust among employees, contributing to a more inclusive and supportive workplace.
Increased Productivity and Reduced Absenteeism:
Early intervention in mental health issues can prevent them from escalating, leading to reduced absenteeism and presenteeism (where employees are at work but not fully functioning). Healthier employees are generally more productive, engaged, and motivated.
Enhanced Crisis Management:
MHFA training prepares employees to handle mental health crises effectively. Trained individuals can provide immediate support and guide affected colleagues to appropriate professional help, ensuring that mental health crises are managed swiftly and safely.
"The course was very rewarding and wonderful to experience a place where people can safely express and contribute their own mental health experiences to learning to support others as well as take care of our own mental health."
