Watch our previous Workplace Wellbeing Webinar

Welcome to the ‘Mental Health in a New Working World – All the Tools You Need to Lead’ webinar.
MHI recognises the workplace as having an important role to play in the promotion of good mental health for all workers and to support those who experience a mental health challenge to remain in work/reintegrate effectively.
The concept of mental health has gained great importance in the current post-pandemic world where we are all recovering from such unprecedent levels of stress. The benefits of having conversations about how we can take care of our mental health in all kinds of work situations, be it in the office, remotely or in a hybrid model are clear in this scenario.
The seminar aims at providing business leaders and managers with an evidence based Mental Health Framework they can adapt and implement in their own organizations and provides best practice tools about how to take the first positive steps in that direction.
MHI recognizes the unique role leaders and managers have in promoting healthier workplaces for everyone.

This webinar will address:

  1. Workplace Mental Health
  2. MHI’s New Workplace Mental Health Framework
  3. Best Practices to support and improve workplace mental health
