Stress Mental Health at Work
Unite conquering stress in the
workplace
Workers' mental health is coming under increasing pressure as
fears over jobs and cuts take their toll in the workplace .In this
time of cuts and growing anxiety Unite has linked up with the
leading UK mental health charity Mind and its members in the Mental
Health Nurses Association to launch the new Stress Mental Health at
work campaign and Stress at Work survey.
Unite is calling on all workplace representatives to work together
to carry out the Stress at Work survey, to measure the true scale
of stress and mental health problems in the workplace. For guidance
on what to do check out the campaign
guide and the Stress at Work
survey.
Some 70 million working days are
lost due to stress or poor mental health at a cost of £8.4 billion
to British business a year (CIPD). Unite needs your help to stamp
out stress so that we can tackle discrimination against workers
with mental health problems together.
Take action to tackle workplace stress and mental health problems.
