beyondblue - National Workplace Programme

The Sainsbury Centre for Mental Health is piloting the 'beyondblue' National Workplace Programme from Australia to see whether it will work in the UK.  The Programme provides training for line managers so they can respond more efficiently to members of staff who experience mental distress,

This programme will increase knowledge on depression and related disorders, reduce stigma and improve attitudes.  More importantly though it will help give people the confidence to assist and appropriately manage employees who may have depression.
