Poll: Does your HR department adequately deal with mental health issues?

By Rebecca Clarke

-

This week is Mental Health Awareness Week. Recent statistics reveal that at least one in four people in the workplace suffer from mental health issues such as anxiety, stress and depression, to name a few. 

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!

Last week we were talking Global Mobility, that’s when companies ship employees off to do their bidding in foreign climbs. For some it can do wonders for careers and confidence and for others it can be a nightmare beyond imagining.

There is much debate over whether single people moving abroad on their own are more likely to stick out their foreign assignment, than a person who moves their family with them when they quit the UK. We wanted to know if faced with sending a person who is single or person with a family abroad, which one you would choose.
