Whether work is causing a mental health issue or aggravating it, employers have a legal responsibility to help employees by recognising signs of stress and responding to them.
There are six main areas that may cause work-related stress or issues if not managed well: demands, control, support, relationships, role and change.
The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) Working Minds campaign can help with five simple steps:
- reach out
- recognise
- respond
- reflect
- make it routine
The campaign includes a risk assessment template and Talking Toolkit for line managers and employers to download.
