Mental Wellbeing in the Workplace

Mental Wellbeing in the Workplace Matters

A happier, healthier workforce

Investing in your team’s mental health is not only the right thing to do, but it’s also a smart business decision. By prioritising mental wellbeing in the workplace, you create a corporate culture of care and compassion that can lead to a more engaged, productive, and loyal team.

Many employers remain unsure how to provide constructive mental health support to employees with mental health issues who have a condition or are battling a difficult patch, balancing everyday demands. As a result, businesses collectively lose billions of pounds yearly in employee absenteeism, productivity and high staff turnovers. 

How can we help?

There is no denying that employees who are struggling with their mental health are less productive, less engaged, and more likely to be absent from work. Whether you represent a small company with 10 employees or a large corporate employer overlooking thousands of employees, we offer affordable ways for organisations to get maximum ROI on partnering with a mental health company like Onebright.

Mental wellbeing in the workplace can change the entire culture of a company. Onebright consulting helps you build an inclusive workplace mental health policy, empower employees through mental health training and make informed decisions about the future of your business.
