Assessment & Measurement
Most employers have access to materials and resources on physical health and safety issues, but Guarding Minds @ Work now provides a set of tools to assess and address psychological health and safety in the workplace.
A psychologically safe and healthy workplace promotes emotional well-being and presents minimal risk to employee mental health. Psychological health consists of our ability to think, feel and behave in a manner that enables us to perform. It stands to reason that a workplace that pays attention to the psychological health of its employees, in addition to their physical health, will be more successful.
The Great-West Life Centre for Mental Health in the Workplace has commissioned Guarding Minds @ Work – a breakthrough evidence-based tool developed by leading Canadian mental health researchers. MORE
The new tool provides Canadian employers with proactive, comprehensive ways to assess the psychological safety and health of their specific workplace, combined with information on appropriate solutions and a method of measuring the effectiveness of those solutions.
