Petition Make mental health training mandatory in all workplaces

Make it mandatory for companies to provide mental health training to all employees. This should cover how mental health problems can affect their health and ability to work, and who and where they can turn to when they need help or more information.

More details

There is nothing in place to compel companies to provide any general training or assistance to employees who may be worried about, or currently dealing with, mental health problems, which means a lot of people are suffering in silence, too afraid to speak to employers about what is happening with them for fear of losing their jobs or being ridiculed. This can lead to a number of issues, including employees taking time off work due to their poor mental health, and their mental health deteriorating.
