Stress and mental health at work - a guide for trade union reps

Chapter 5

Carrying out a workplace survey

[ch 5: page 54]

Unions can devise their own stress surveys, either as part of the HSE’s Stress Management Standards process or as a separate exercise.

For example, general union Unite developed a survey for its reps to use in stress and mental health campaigns it ran in the not-for-profit sector, and in a national joint initiative with the mental health charity MIND, initiated by the union’s National Disabled Members’ Committee.
