High levels of anxiety and depression in the workforce have led to a sharp increase in cases of stress. In this course, Emma uses her knowledge and experience of stress to break down the barriers around this important (and lifesaving) topic showing you how to recognise and begin to deal with employee stress.

​

There are many myths about how stress affects staff and what obligations employers have to manage stress in the workplace. Often you can be receiving conflicting messages from HR, Occupational Health and H&S teams as to how best to manage individual cases.

​

This course is suitable for any member of your team – whether senior management, management or employee. It aims to bring clarity to the subject and give you strategies for removing the stigma that can stop early discussions between colleagues and managers.

• What legislation covers stress in the workplace
