Understanding mental health

Supporting your workers’ mental health is an ethical responsibility that has tangible business benefits.

The HSE Management Standards and our Work Positive toolkit can help you address work-related stress, which can lead to poor mental health.

It's important to be aware of the many factors from your workers’ wider lives that can affect their mental health and wellbeing.

A long term health condition is when someone has a physical or mental health condition that needs ongoing management over a period of years.
