Why your workplace needs MHFA
Adult mental health issues in the workplace are continuing to grow. In fact, one in six workers are experiencing mental health issues such as depression, anxiety or stress. Which is why MHFA Courses are so vital. Mental Health First Aid Training Courses offer employees an in-depth understanding of mental health and wellbeing in the workplace.
MHFA Courses provide delegates and organisations with the key information, confidence and practical skills to spot the early signs of mental health issues. Our MHFA Courses also enhance interpersonal skills that help Mental Health First Aiders offer their support in the workplace.
Mental ill-health costs UK employers between £42 – £45 billion each year. But having a qualified in-house Mental Health First Aider can aid early intervention, improving the mental wellbeing of your staff and reducing these losses. Equally, positive mental health in the workplace can improve workplace productivity.
