The Managing Occupational Health and Wellbeing training course from IOSH puts the focus on employee wellbeing and creating a culture to improve your organisations mental health.
Modern health and safety courses touch on mental health in the workplace, but with more and more research showing just how big an impact mental health issues are having on business success, managers need effective training to allow them to push your culture, and your business performance, forwards.
Why this course?
The IOSH report ‘The Healthy Profit’ found that sickness absence due to mental ill health alone costs the UK economy more than £8billion per year. This course is a great first step to improving your organisation culture around mental ill health, reducing the cost of mental ill health to your business, while promoting healthier staff.
If you are looking to get the benefits of a course focussed on improving the health and wellbeing of your staff, choose a course approved by one of the largest health and safety bodies in the world, and developed with help from the Faculty of Occupational Health Nursing Development Group.
Who is it for?
The course is not industry-specific; it teaches managers and supervisors about the importance of wellbeing in the workplace, and how to improve health and wellbeing in your organisation.
