World Mental Health Day - 10 October 2024

Around half of work-related ill health is down to stress, depression or anxiety with each person suffering taking an average of 19.6 days off work a year

Why prioritise good mental health and prevent work-related stress?

  • it’s the law
  • it’s good for business
  • it’s the right thing to do

The law requires all employers to prevent work-related stress and support good mental health in the workplace by doing a risk assessment and acting on it.

Failing to manage stress at work can cost employers in reduced productivity, sickness absence, or even losing a valued member of the team.

HSE's Working Minds campaign can help. Find out how to support your workers to thrive:
