Mental health support shouldn’t be a one-week-per-year conversation.

But this initiative by the Mental Health Foundation is the opportunity for us to reflect, check in, and ask: how are we really doing - and what more can we do?

#MentalHealthAwarenessWeek

[Q&A - People Matter @QAPeopleMatter]

It's Mental Health Awareness Week - a reminder that mental wellbeing isn’t a luxury - it’s essential.

Work can be a source of achievement, purpose, and connection - but it can also bring pressure, overwhelm, and burnout.

People matter.

[Mental Health Foundation @mentalhealth]

When employees are healthy and active, business performance improves

Business owners need to recognise employees as the valuable assets they are and give them every opportunity to stay well and engaged

Acas has recently updated its guidance on #Neurodiversity in the workplace

Clarity is key here - are employees expected to complete their responsibilities within regular working hours, or is it a matter of longer hours over a four-day period?

Could this now cause health and safety risks for those working additional hours?

Some large London-based employers are encouraging employees to up their no of days in the office
