Manager’s toolkit for supporting your team’s mental health at work

Tips, support and services to help managers support their teams with their mental health at work.


Want to learn how to support your team’s mental health at work? We can help.

Our Employment Support and Workplace Wellbeing Training teams work closely with employers and employees to help normalise conversations about mental health at work. To support this, we've developed a comprehensive toolkit to help you support your team’s mental health in the workplace while looking after your own wellbeing.

It includes information about Wellness Action Plans and reasonable adjustments, tips for supportive conversations, and guidance on dealing with difficult situations at work such as absence and disciplinary matters.

The toolkit will help you feel empowered and informed to support your team and feel confident having conversations about mental health and wellbeing at work. Download our free resources below.


Ready to make mental health and wellbeing a priority in your workplace?

Workplace Wellbeing Training courses can help build your confidence and understanding so you can put these skills and techniques into practice.
