The largest causes of sickness absence for our county’s workforce are depression, stress, and anxiety. Data from 2018-2022 shows an average of 18 million UK work days were lost due to mental illness which resulted in a cost to UK businesses of between £45 billion and £56 billion every year. When left uninformed, managers and co-workers may unwittingly exhibit stigmatising behaviours, which can be detrimental to a person experiencing a mental health issue. Our message to all employers, managers, HR and team leads is that supporting the health and wellbeing of your staff is more important than ever and we are here to help you achieve this.
