At Strata we strive to promote a culture of health, safety and welfare in the workplace. We recognise and value that a happy workforce is an effective workforce.
Employees from the Health & Safety and Human Resources sections of our business recently attended the Mental Health First Aid Champions Course with our friends at Robustmind Mental Fitness Ltd. The one day mental health awareness and skills training included:
- An understanding of common mental health issues
- Knowledge and confidence to advocate for mental health awareness
- Ability to spot signs of mental ill health
- Skills to support positive wellbeing
The course was well received by our staff who found it engaging and informative. A lot of sobering moments incurred throughout the day, however, it was to be expected given the subject matter.
