How can you support employees with mental health issues in the workplace?

Fostering employees who are confident to address conflict is also important. Conflict should exist in our workplaces otherwise we don’t forster a healthy environment for change and the opportunity to challenge the way we currently work and grow and adapt as our world changes. Being confident with conflict means people feel they have the skills and the tools their need to start and continue respectful conversations when people don’t agree.

1. Create psychological safety in your team. 2. Listen actively when employees speak about their struggles. 3. Support your employees when going through tough times such as time off when required.

Peer Perspective: we all go through tough times, and there's no shame in asking for help. Simply asking If you're feeling overwhelmed or just need someone to talk to, I'm here for you. Supervisor Perspective: Well-being comes first, and there's no pressure to keep everything bottled up. We're all human, and it's okay to ask for help when you need it. I'm here to listen without judgment and offer whatever support I can.

Les managers ne sont que rarement formés à ces questions de détection de la souffrance mentale de leurs collaborateurs et collaboratrices. Et on peut légitimement se demander si cela rentre dans leurs attributions... Les MRH peuvent jouer un r?le clé de tiers dans ces situations qui allient souvent problèmes au travail et hors travail. Faire appel à la médecine du travail quand cela existe, à des 'coachs' externes ou à des mentors internes, peut aider à traiter les problèmes de santé mentale. Les prévenir reste la meilleure approche, et là les managers ont un vrai r?le à jouer...

There is a difference between mental health issues, mental disorders, and mental illness. The company must have in place policies and practices on responding to each manifestation of the individual domains. I recommend consultants available for management training and on-demand access for case analysis. The company must decide on responses that protects the office environment from being severely impacted.

Les seules approches individuelles de prévention et de résolution des problèmes de santé mentale ne peuvent suffire. Adapter et agir sur les conditions de travail et l'organisation du travail est essentiel. Horaires aménagés, environnement de travail inclusif et non stressant, travail au sein d'équipe bienveillante pour garder un bon niveau de lien social et de soutien... sont autant de pistes à ne pas négliger.

Educating my team about mental health is the first and most critical step. This involves bringing about awareness that mental health is as important as physical health and helping people to talk about it openly. Secondly there is a lot of useful material available - articles, books, guidance booklets. It is very useful to share these with your teammates by highlighting important parts to give them a basic understanding. Thirdly if you know Subject Matter Experts in this area, you could collaborate with them to come and give the team some key insights, shares cases and engage the team in a meaningful discussion thereby clarifying doubts, misconceptions, myths about mental health.

No hay mejor forma de ense?ar que con el ejemplo. Si vamos a fomentar el cuidado de la salud mental, debemos comenzar con nosotros mismos. Por un lado, para trabajar cuestiones personales que pueden interferir en el desempe?o de nuestro rol. Por el otro, para aprender estrategias en la contención de conflictos personales o grupales de los empleados. No a modo de resolverlos, sino más bien para poder detectarlos y poder canalizarlos por los canales adecuados sin afectar nuestra propia salud mental.

Approximately 1 in 5 people experience what some might call a ‘disorder’. We need to think differently about this and rather than using word like ‘accomodate’, use words like acceptance and even honouring differences. People with ‘mental health issues’ can end up being assets, due to different ways of seeing things. Flexibility and open mindedness are key.
