Mindful Employer
GWP Group are proud to take part in the National Health Service (NHS) “Mindful Employer” initiative. Developed, led and supported by employers, the aim is to increase awareness of mental health at work as well as providing support for businesses in recruiting and retaining staff.
There are numerous mental health issues that can affect employees. Stress, depression and anxiety are believed to result in more lost working days in the UK than any other forms of illness.
The overall cost of this to employers, through lost production and staff turnover, is estimated at approximately £30 billion per annum.
Taking steps to improve the management and recognition of mental health in the workplace should enable at least 30% of this cost to be saved – up to a potential £9 billion a year. Certain research has also shown that a spend of 80p on health promotion and intervention can save £4 in costs incurred due to absenteeism and the requirement for temporary staff.
With the right support, people with mental health issues can and do stay in work. This is support GWP always strive to offer.
