In these uncertain times, organizations are striving to establish a new balance in the workplace. This involves ensuring stability and providing assurance amidst the volatile, unpredictable environment. At the core of all high-performing organizations lie healthy, productive individuals who drive progress and success. As such, it is imperative to protect and promote mental health within the professional sphere, particularly for those in managerial roles tasked with supervising and guiding others.

Our 2-Day Mental Health and Corporate Wellness in the Workplace Certificate Program is an essential step towards this goal. This comprehensive training will empower you with crucial knowledge and practical tools to create a robust work environment that prioritizes both physical and mental health. The program is specially designed to assist you in recognizing the signs and symptoms of various mental health conditions, understanding their impact on performance and productivity, and acting effectively to support affected individuals.

This course is not merely about mental health awareness. It’s about transforming the culture of your organization to be inclusive and supportive, allowing individuals with mental health conditions to participate fully and equitably in the workplace. We will guide you through implementing comprehensive mental health strategies, creating wellness programs, and promoting healthy behaviors. You’ll also learn about mental health legislation, such as the Mental Health Parity Act and the Family Medical Leave Act, and how they intersect with corporate policies.

Moreover, we will provide insights into the role of Employee Assistance Programs (EAPs) and their benefits. We will delve into the crucial aspect of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and its provisions for reasonable accommodation. We will also discuss how to create a culture of wellness by promoting healthy eating, encouraging breaks, and maintaining a substance-free environment, along with strategies for evaluating program results and sharing achievements.

The training concludes with a glimpse into the future: we’ll discuss the trends expected in 2023 and beyond for healthier, happier workplaces. By participating in this program, you’ll be well-equipped to lead your team toward better mental and physical health, foster an environment of understanding and empathy, and ultimately drive higher productivity and performance. Our goal is to empower you to become not just a manager or supervisor, but a wellness advocate in your workplace.
