#MentalHealthAwarenessWeek

Mental ill health is the largest single cause of disability in the UK.

The 2017 Stevenson / Farmer review estimated the cost to employers as between £33 billion and £42 billion/year.

Our mental health toolkit for employers, developed by Dr Maria Hudson @Essex_EBS, launched in 2019.

The information within the kit is based on case studies and insights from employers in Essex and the surrounding areas.

#MHAW20
The kit urges employers to note the benefits of having someone with lived mental health experience on the team, and the importance of creating an environment where an employee can disclose their mental health condition right at the start of their employment.
