Tuesday 25 May 9.00-11.00am
Working under pressure? Targets to reach? Returning to work? Increased responsibilities?
Stress in the workplace manifests itself in many forms and was already being recognised as having a huge impact on business and its productivity; then came Covid. In 2019/20 stress, depression or anxiety accounted for 51% of all work-related ill health cases and 55% of all working days lost due to work-related ill health. We also know there will be continued long-term health problems with the UK population having been isolated, furloughed and facing an unsure future.
So how do we make things better when we have to think about our role as a co-worker as well as a business owner? Who do we turn to? Where can we get support and how do we know what support is needed?
Paul Vicary Co Founder and Director of X Calibre MH understands workplace stress, having served over 33 years in the military and through this short focused session he will discuss with you the impact of not taking taking workplace mental health seriously and offer you workable realistic solutions demonstrating the positive outcomes of looking after yourself and your staff.
Following on will be Ellen Kay, Co-Founder CyberMIND and Human Factors Specialist at Cyber Quarter who will cover the definition of stress, using neuroscience, and how stress shows up in the workplace making your employee your greatest ‘insider threat’.
