See Change in Your Workplace

See Change has identified the workplace as a key setting for social change around attitudes to mental health problems to take place.

Our goal is to help facilitate a cultural shift in workplaces so that employers and employees feel supported and secure in starting a discussion about how mental health can affect each one of us.

See Change has developed a six step pledge programme to help Irish workplaces create an open culture around mental health and play a role in challenging mental health stigma.

By signing up to the See Change workplace pledge, organisations are showing that they are committed to creating an open culture around mental health for managers and employees.

Creating workplace environments where people can be open and positive about their own and others’ mental health:

Promotes overall organisational and individual wellbeing

Reduces absenteeism

Enhances employee stress management skills

Reduces cost associated with absenteeism, employee relations issues, talent retention and acquisition

Can assist employers in developing systems to support the 1 in 4 employees who may experience mental health difficulties at a given point
