Two free hours on Zoom, and an honest chat about mental health at work

Join us for a free, two hour session live on Zoom. Send up to two members of staff to learn what the law expects of employers, the things most organisations never think about, and how to support a colleague who is struggling, all without leaving their desk. There is no sales pitch.

Why we do this

Most people want to help a struggling colleague. Few know where to start.

Poor mental health costs UK employers an estimated £51 billion a year, and the biggest part of that is not people being off. It is people coming to work while they are struggling. Stress, depression and anxiety are now the single biggest cause of working days lost to work related ill health.

Too often the first conversation an employer has about mental health happens after someone is already off. This session is a chance to think about it earlier, with no pressure and without anyone leaving the office. You will leave knowing where your organisation stands and what is worth doing next. If that turns out to be training with us, great. If you decide you can take it from here, that is fine too.

What we will talk about

Practical things you can use at work the very next day.

01

What the law actually asks of you

Your duty of care, why work related stress belongs in your risk assessment, and how the Equality Act can apply to mental health even without a diagnosis. Explained plainly, without the jargon.

02

The things most organisations miss

Whether staff actually know how to use your Employee Assistance Programme. What happens when someone comes back after time off. Who looks after the person everyone else talks to. Small gaps that make a big difference.

03

What to do when someone is struggling

How to notice the early signs, how to start the conversation without it feeling awkward, and where your role ends. We will use our REACH OUT approach, the same one we teach on our courses.

This is not a sales pitch. It is two hours of honest, practical conversation about looking after people at work.

Ask whatever you like, take what is useful, and leave the rest. We will happily tell you about what we do if you ask, but nobody will chase you afterwards.

Your questions, answered.

Is it really free?

Yes. Each organisation can send up to two people at no cost and with no obligation. We only ask that you let us know if you can no longer come, so someone else can have the place.

Who is it for?

Anyone who has a hand in looking after people at work: business owners, managers, HR and operations staff, and team leaders. Any sector and any size of organisation, anywhere in Scotland.

What do we need to join?

A computer or laptop with a camera, a microphone and a steady internet connection. We encourage cameras on so the session stays relaxed and everyone can take part. We will email your Zoom link the day before.

Will we be sold to?

No. If you want to know more about our training we are happy to talk, but there is no pitch during the session and no follow up calls unless you ask for one.

Is this a qualification?

No. It is an informal awareness session. If you decide afterwards that your team would benefit from more, our accredited courses build on what we cover here.

Can we send more than two people?

Each session has 20 places and we keep it to two per organisation, so everyone gets the chance to ask questions. For bigger teams we can run a session just for you, online or at your workplace. Get in touch and we will talk it through.
