Workshop promotes workplace mental health

Safe communities depend on access to health care, including mental health care.

Employers can contribute to making our community better by ensuring workplaces are healthy and safe for all staff.

To help, WorkBC Victoria is supporting local employers by offering a workshop on Jan. 29, in partnership with the Canadian Mental Health Association, that will provide insights on occupational health and safety. The event will help you:

  • learn practical steps to promote a healthier, safer workplace environment
  • understand employers’ responsibilities to support employees’ mental health
  • and know more about Canada’s National Standard for Psychological Health and Safety in the Workplace.

Offering a safe workplace will help with staff recruitment as well as with building inclusive, diverse and equitable work environments.
