Mental Health Awareness Week | Best practice for supporting employee mental health, from Sodexo Engage & Applaud

Mental Health Awareness Week is well underway and making sure the issue of mental wellbeing remains very much in the spotlight.

The theme of this year’s annual campaign is ‘anxiety’, something many express experiencing as a result of their workplace, but often little is done about it.

In fact, a recent report showed that 85% of UK employers currently offer no mental health days and less than 10% of employers are planning to change this in the next 12 months.

With a continuing mental health crisis in the UK, this just isn’t good enough, and ultimately leaving employees without the support they need.
