LOOKING AFTER COLLEAGUES’ MENTAL HEALTH
The Mental Health Foundation has released guidance on how to look after your mental health during the Coronavirus outbreak including:
- Ensure that employees are aware of resources for support on mental health and wellbeing such as an Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
- Be mindful that certain groups or individuals may be more affected by ongoing events and may require extra support and ensure resources are made available to them
- Ensure that employees are aware of where they can get help or information (internally and externally) if they are concerned about their physical and/or mental health
- Regularly communicate with employees to keep them informed on what measures are being put in place and how this may impact them
