Free Mental Health Toolbox Talk

Mental health concerns how we think, feel and behave. Anxiety and depression are the most common mental health problems. They are often a reaction to a difficult life event, such as bereavement, but can also be caused by work-related issues.

The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 require employers to assess the risk of stress-related ill health arising from work activities, as with any other hazard. The Health and Safety at Work etc Act 1974 requires an employer to take measures to control that risk. The Management standards approach is considered suitable and sufficient and free tools and guidance has been provided by the Health & Safety Executive to help any workplace.
