Our last poll 

Last week we were talking Mental Health in time for Mental Health Awareness Week.

There is much debate over whether HR departments are doing enough to help people with mental health issues in the workplace. This week we want to know if you think that your HR department is doing enough to help employees with these issues. Of course, answers remain anonymous!
