The Policy and its guidance are new to the Council and a positive step towards making Cardiff a better place to work. They are part of the Council’s commitment to promoting and maintaining the mental health and wellbeing of all employees through workplace practices, and encourage employees to take responsibility for their own mental health and wellbeing.
The policy aims to:
· Build and maintain a workplace environment and culture that supports mental health and wellbeing and prevents discrimination.
· Increase employee knowledge and awareness of mental health and wellbeing issues and behaviours.
· Reduce stigma around depression and anxiety in the workplace, and all forms of mental health illness.
· Facilitate employees active participation in a range of initiatives/activities that support mental health and wellbeing.
This guidance is designed to provide practical assist to line managers in dealing with an employee’s disclosure about mental health concerns.
The policy and guidance will also contribute to the proactive and management of absence.
