Astutis Mental Health and Workplace Safety Factsheet
Mental health can have a significant impact on your work life in many ways, such as:
- Productivity and Performance: Mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, or excessive stress can reduce your ability to focus, make decisions, and complete tasks efficiently. This can lead to decreased productivity and lower job performance.
- Absenteeism: Individuals with mental health challenges may take more sick days or time off work to deal with their condition, leading to increased absenteeism. Frequent absenteeism can disrupt workflow and strain workplace relationships.
- Presenteeism: Some individuals may come to work despite their mental health challenges but may not be fully engaged or productive. This is known as presenteeism and can negatively impact overall workplace productivity.
Here are some common factors that influence mental health in the workplace:
Workload: An excessive workload, tight deadlines, or consistently high job demands can lead to stress and anxiety, affecting mental well-being.
Job Control: A lack of control over one's work, decision-making, or schedule can contribute to feelings of powerlessness and stress.
Work-Life Balance: An imbalance between work and personal life can lead to burnout and negatively impact mental health. Long hours and inflexible schedules can exacerbate this issue.
Job Insecurity: Fear of job loss, unstable employment, or frequent layoffs can create chronic stress and anxiety among employees.
By equipping participants with essential skills and knowledge, this course goes beyond traditional safety training, making mental health a cornerstone of a safer and more productive work environment.
The 5 online modules are:
- The Impact of Mental Health on Safety
- Overview on the Definition and Reality of Mental Health.
- How to Support Struggling Workers.
- The Creation of a Positive Culture.
