Hello everyone,
I recently attended an excellent Mental Health masterclass workshop
run by Business in the Community. I've attached the slides for you.
I'm reviewing my report content in light of what I've learned - I wondered
if any of my esteemed colleagues have an example of what advice they would give
to managers in a report for an employee who is absent / returning to work with
mental health problems?
ie Covering advice not just on fitness for work, but how the employee
should be supported by the manager while absent and following return to work.
However I need to make sure it's pitched in a way that informs without being patronising
and stays within the scope of OH advice. This is a manufacturing environment, male
dominated, some might say aggressive and cynical, particularly with regard to understanding
mental health issues. Education has begun (mental health first aid at work training delivered
with great success), but a lot more to be done.
Your wisdom greatly appreciated as always!
Thanks,
Roisin
