Why book MMHITW Training

Around 1 in 4 people in the UK will experience a mental health problem each year. For businesses, this presents a challenge as much as an opportunity for you to play an integral role in strengthening the mental wellbeing of your workforce.

Automotive workers are facing greater health and wellbeing challenges than the general population, with nearly all respondents (99.8%) reporting they’ve been personally affected by a health and wellbeing issue. This makes it crucial for people managers to be equipped to recognise and support colleagues when mental health issues arise in the workplace.

In our industry survey, 1 in 9 were personally affected by a lack of support for mental health in the workplace. Let's change this!

As an industry, we all share a responsibility to:

• Check in on their employees to see how they are feeling
• Encourage open, stigma-free conversations
• Provide practical tools and strategies that can help individuals in our industry improve their wellbeing
• CPD accredited, providing recognised professional development that adds measurable value for employees while supporting organisational learning, engagement and performance.

We’ve been working closely with many of our partners to deliver this training and it’s received outstanding feedback - 4 in 5 attendees would highly recommend our training!
