Workplace Solutions for Mental Health

Our strong commitment towards mental health makes it a natural fit for us to extend our partnership with Excellence Canada, acting as their Champion of Excellence for Mental Health at Work®; to promote great mental health. We both strongly believe it drives overall well-being and improves workplace productivity. Promoting mental health and well-being is vital for all Canadians. Find out more on the 2017 Canada Awards for Excellence recipients.

Excellence Canada helped us create Mental Health at Work® Essentials. This guide gives employers and their employees proven practices to help build a healthier workplace. It can also show them how to apply the National Standard of Canada for Psychological Health and Safety in the Workplace.

Employers and employees can get useful tips and watch videos at our Workplace Solutions for Mental Health website. They’ll learn the benefits of positive mental health in the workplace and how it can reduce:

  • Absenteeism
  • Long-term disability
  • Drug costs
  • Diseases caused or aggravated by mental illness
