Webinar: Prevention over cure – mental health pandemic. What can employers do?

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has led to a range of challenges for all across the globe. Increasingly, mental health issues are causing concern, with people becoming ever more isolated and fearing for their personal and professional future.

The world will never be as we knew it; so adapting to the new way is increasingly important.

A variety of statistics are being released each week to demonstrate the impact of mental health illness in the UK. This webinar will provide an overview of the impact of mental health illness and projections of what might happen over the coming years, if we do not address this now.

• Provide awareness of the upcoming mental health challenges for employees, and in turn for employers;
• Suggest a range of short, medium and long term plans to address mental health challenges for both employers and employees
