Petition Workplace Stress&mental health training made mandatory for all managers

Since 2012 work related stress, anxiety & depression has increased from 10.4 million to 12.5 million days lost. Employee, work related mental ill health is taking it's toll on workplaces, but also effecting people's home lives, more often than not alcohol and substance misuse problems, & suicide.

More details

HSEAW states "Employers have a legal duty to protect employees from stress at work by doing a risk assessment and acting on it." However, as a company who specialise in corporate Mental Health and Workplace Wellbeing programmes the vast majority of organisations we come across are not complying with legislation as legislation is not being enforced, stress Ps & Ps are not in place & managers, HR and H&S have had no training to aid in prevention & appropriate management of these risks.
