Your business may be eligible to participate in a free workplace mental health training program offered by the NSW Government.
Focused on providing practical tools to talk about and support mental health in the workplace, the evidence-based training programs are delivered by experts from Black Dog Institute. The programs are available as an interactive workshop or self-paced online learning.
There are three programs available under the scheme:
• Leading a Mentally Healthy Workplace - gives employers and executive leaders practical strategies to create a psychosocially safe and positive work environment.
• Managing for Team Wellbeing - helps managers and supervisors develop their wellbeing leadership skills to create a mentally healthier workplace.
• Your Mental Health at Work - gives sole traders and employees practical strategies to care for their own mental health at work and support others.
Privately owned NSW businesses with less than 200 employees, or a not for profit or any size, are eligible to participate in the program.
