Mental Health Training Courses
Training is one of the most impactful initiatives an organisation can offer its employees. It can create a thriving workplace by building mental health and wellbeing capability. According to Australia’s largest workplace mental health survey of workplaces (Indicators of a Thriving Workplace), productivity in Australia fell with the onset of the first wave of the pandemic.
WorkPlace Interventions recognise that mental health problems are a hidden struggle: less evident than physical injury or sickness, highlighting the importance of selecting the right training intervention based on your organisation’s specific needs.
Over the past decade, WorkPlace Interventions have made significant progress in addressing the impact of mental health challenges on employees’ ability to work. With three in five Australian employees (59.5%) experiencing a mental health condition in 2020, mental health training is more important now than ever.
