Workplace Wellness This has become a hot topic, lately, and especially as it relates to MENTAL SAFETY. It can't be ignored, yet many of us aren't sure exactly what it is. How safe is the mental wellness of your staff and managers at your workplace? One major symptom of a mentally unsafe environment is absenteeism. Another symptom is "presenteeism". This is where the bodies show up for work, but the "ownership" and care for the position and the job are elsewhere. Even physical safety issues can be symptoms of a mentally unsafe environment. When someone isn't plugged into what (s)he's doing, careless actions occur and accidents happen. One-fifth (1/5) of employee disability claims today are related to impaired mental health. It is predicted that within just a few years, mental health will be the number one disability - surpassing today's leading disability which is cardio-vascular disease. Civil, respectful workplaces currently incur between 15% and 33% fewer mental health disability claims. Some of the mental illnesses which are commonplace are:

Many of our clients were unaware of the level of mental safety their staff perceive their workplace to have, though absenteeism is definitely an issue in every industry. Managers and/or company owners coached by Lynne create systems to alleviate them of many of the tasks that can be completed by others. In so doing, staff training is more frequent, communication improves and the staff's influence and control over their tasks increase, which has a very positive effect on the employees' mental health. The employer or manager (our client) is happier, which delights his/her family. The staff is happier, which delights their families. Stress is reduced as a natural occurrence. What does it cost your company for absenteeism? What would the return on your investment in coaching be if each member of your staff took even just one fewer sick day this year?
