Help us develop support at work for people experiencing mental health issues.
A supportive workplace can make a big difference to mental health recovery. Workplaces that provide support to staff to recover from mental health challenges, see financial and non-financial benefits for the entire organisation.
When the NSW Government consulted with stakeholders in 2018 and 2019, they told us that searching for information on how to support recovery was overwhelming. In response, we developed a recovery@work toolkit (the Toolkit) as one of the projects under the NSW Mentally Healthy Workplaces Strategy (2018-2022). In the Toolkit, links are provided to simple tools for each stage of recovery, such as discussion guides and planning templates.
The NSW Government has received some feedback on the current recovery@work toolkit and updated the research on what is effective in improving recovery. We are now redesigning the Toolkit and looking for your suggestions to assist mental health recovery.
What people have told us so far
These are the ideas that we have heard so far as to what to include in the Toolkit:
more communication tools that will give us choices
better planning tools for returning to work or to stay at work during recovery
access to better information, such as evidence of best practice, education resources for self-paced learning and accredited training for frontline managers
information and resources to be adapted and targeted to specific needs and groups, industry sectors and workplace roles
Have your say
Share your feedback to help us understand the issues and develop a better toolkit.
Do the quick poll, complete the survey, share ideas, or email a question. We are also consulting widely on this, with focus groups planned for interested stakeholders. Please email us to register to join a focus group and to learn more about other consultation opportunities as part of this initiative.
