A WELLBEING coach is urging businesses to take “meaningful action” on workplace mental health.
Nicola Forsyth, founder of Lichfield company Nicola Kathryn Coaching, said Mental Health Awareness Week starting on 11th May was an opportunity for firms to reflect on the issue.
With figures showing almost 15 million working days are lost each year in the UK due to stress, depression and anxiety, Nicola said the need for action was urgent.
“Mental Health Awareness Week is almost here and while more workplaces are recognising that mental health provision is more than a dedicated week, it is a timely reminder to move beyond awareness and into action.
“How people feel and how they’re treated directly impacts how they perform. When disengagement and stress go unmanaged, it shows up in decision-making, relationships, retention – and eventually the bottom line.”
Nicola is hosting workshops designed to deal with topics such as burnout prevention, building confidence and performing under pressure.
