With one in four Australians suffering from a mental health condition (most commonly depression or anxiety) at some time in their life, chances are that you will have employees who need support during a period of recovery from a mental illness.

You need leaders and managers who have an understanding and confidence in dealing with mental health issues, and how to promote a mentally healthy workplace. We have the expertise to help you achieve this.
