Similarly, the large majority (81%) considered that the mental health of staff should be part of company policy. Despite their concerns, however, less than 1 in 10 of these companies had an official policy on mental health | Mental Health in the Workplace Tackling the effects of stress 91 million working days a year are lost to mental ill-health Written by Dr Penny Gray We wish to acknowledge the help and assistance of the Health and Saftey Executive HSE in producing this publication.

Second it will address the ways in which employers can help to create a psychologically healthy work environment in which the effects of stress are minimised and managed and employees are supported in using and developing their abilities and potential. Finally the recruitment and retention of those experiencing mental health problems is addressed and a list of useful contacts is provided for further information.
