Tackling mental ill health in the workplace

Mental ill health is a growing problem in the workplace today. Employers need to be better at preventing employees from feeling unwell and recognizing the signs when they do. The workplace is not always the reason why someone suffers from mental illness, but there are great benefits for both the person and the employer if it is not swept under the carpet. For the employee, having someone see them and help them find a way out of the darkness can be life-changing. For the employer, it means that valuable employees do not disappear into long periods of sick leave.

Flexible lectures for companies

At Sveapsykologerna, we see it as part of our mission to spread knowledge about how we can work together to counteract mental illness. That's why we offer flexible lectures that you as a client can shape as you wish based on what suits your organization. This means that we can focus on a single area during one session, or that we have several focus areas during a lecture series that can last for several months.

Reasons for mental health problems

A workplace is often home to many different personalities and unique life stories. As many people as there are in the workplace, as many different variants and reasons for mental illness can be encountered. In other words, there is no one-size-fits-all approach to a lecture with advice and tips on combating mental health problems. But there are areas that are more common than others and are popular during our lectures, including stress, alcohol abuse, drug abuse, sleep difficulties and depression.
