Workplace Wellbeing

Open and supportive workplaces benefit everyone – employees and employers. That’s why at Hull and East Yorkshire Mind, we have created our Employee Wellbeing Package, our version of the Employee Assistance Programme (EAP).

1 in 6 people will experience a mental health problem at work every single year. We can support employers to make mental health a priority in the workplace. The landscape of the workplace and the way that employees interact with it has changed significantly in recent times. Expectations have also changed and with them comes a greater need for employee and employer to be better connected. A misalignment can create stress and anxiety, which in turn can lead to absenteeism, a higher turnover of staff and presenteeism amongst other things.

At Hull and East Yorkshire Mind we passionately believe that early interventions can help staff remain resilient, feel supported, keep engaged and be truly productive in their workplace. Our expert team of staff work consultatively with organisations to create a culture that celebrates good mental health and wellbeing whilst giving space and time to support mental ill health or wellbeing issues.

Embedding proactive and positive workplace wellbeing is the right thing to do. Let us help you achieve it.

Why does this matter?

  • In 2021/22, 17 million work days were lost in the UK due to work-related stress, anxiety and depression. That equates to 71 thousand work years.
  • The estimated annual cost per employee of poor mental health in Yorkshire & the Humber is £2,075.
  • A recent Deloitte report found that for every £1 invested in staff mental health, employers can see a return of £6.30.

How we can help

Using our broad range of experience we have created our Employee Wellbeing Package, our version of the Employee Assistance Programme (EAP). By bringing together elements of our expertise we believe our workplace wellbeing offer is unique, far reaching and impactful. As a trusted, local provider of mental health and wellbeing support we are well positioned to work with organisations to help create healthier workplaces.

We have many ‘off the shelf’ offers available ranging from one off courses, workshops and one to one activity which we would be happy to talk to you about. However, by working with organisations and their employees to fully understand their needs, we can present a solution that is tailored and unique to them.

"Having recommended Hull and East Yorkshire Mind's support to one of my long standing clients I was very impressed by the speed and professionalism of response. We have seen an improvement in sickness absence figures, but it has been the general demeanour of employees that has been so dramatic. For many of them it has been like a weight has been lifted, and there has been a shift to a positive mindset with a reduction in self-medicating behaviours."
