Health and Safety Law 2024 (October 2024)
The guidance encourages employers to promote good mental health in the workplace and to talk about mental health and stress within teams to help reduce or remove any stigma and provide a more supportive, understanding environment. They should also keep in touch with workers working from home; tackle potential mental health triggers such as bullying, harassment and discrimination; and consider the impact of change, redundancies and job security. Reorganisation, particularly if it may lead to job losses, and disciplinary action are likely to be additionally stressful for workers.
