Supporting mental health in the workplace

Mental health conditions affect one in five Australians every year. Almost half the population will experience a mental health condition in their life. 

This webpage contains information to help better understand mental health conditions and considerations for employers when supporting employees with mental health conditions. Information provided in this guide includes: 

• how to start a conversation about mental health
• how to respond when an employee discloses their mental health condition
• workplace adjustments to support employees with mental health conditions
• managing stress at work, including how to recognise it and how to support employees who feel stress.

The website includes an audio version and links to disability awareness training and a conversation guide about making workplace adjustments.
