In this Workplace Mental Health Hub you’ll find a wealth of information and advice to help you be more aware of your own workplace mental health, and that of your colleagues. There are also practical steps that you can take to make your workplace a more supportive place to work for those with mental health problems.

Business in the Community partnered with Public Health England to produce a free, online toolkit to help every organisation support the mental health and wellbeing of its employees. It will help employers take positive actions to build a culture that champions good mental health and provides a greater understanding of how to help those who need more support.

This toolkit will help employers pick out the most valuable resources, and help to develop an approach that works. For larger organisations, the toolkit is also a useful resource to share with businesses in their supply chain and across their network.

Every organisation has an opportunity to support and develop a mentally healthy workforce and it doesn’t need to be complicated – this toolkit will help you understand and act, step by step.
