Stress and burn-out critically affect workers’ productivity, morale and overall health. Find out how the work of health and safety professionals can combat these challenges.

Recognising and addressing stress before it escalates is key to creating a healthy, sustainable workplace. Health and safety professionals have a central role in implementing preventative measures and fostering a culture to prioritise mental health.

This first session of a three-part mental health series focuses on shifting from reactive crisis management to proactive prevention strategies.

Speakers:

  • Kelly Nicoll, IOSH President
  • Karl Bennett, Chair, Employee Assistance Professionals Association
