Safer Minds believes everyone working within the security industry should have some awareness of basic mental health.
ABOUT
"The importance of receiving mental health support is the key to helping a person avoid a life of suffering."
It is undeniable that the security industry can often be a very challenging and stressful place to work, and stigma within the industry can often been seen as a significant barrier to acknowledging poor mental health, and receiving the treatment and support people need. On top of this, people working within the industry often connect with hundreds, if not thousands of others through the course of their work, or home and leisure activities, which makes having a basic understanding of mental health, how to promote positive wellbeing, and how to help and support others, extremely important. Therefore,
Safer Minds believes
everyone working within the industry should have some awareness of basic mental health.
So if you are passionate about promoting positive mental health and developing mental health awareness within your workforce, then please join us by giving a paper copy of Mental Health Awareness for the Security Industry to each of your employees, and include it in your induction pack for new starters. It isn't expensive, and takes just a short while to read, yet will significantly increase your employee's knowledge and awareness of mental health, and how to support others through a crisis.
A small investment in your workforce now is a huge investment in their wellbeing and mental health for the future!
