• Description:
  The Center for Health, Work & Environment (CHWE) at the Colorado School of Public Health has partnered with the University of Colorado Helen and Arthur E. Johnson Depression Center to develop and launch the Workplace Mental Health Module an online toolkit designed for employers wanting to raise awareness and improve the mental health of their employees. ... The Workplace Mental Health Module was created as a direct response to this need, heightened by COVID-19, to better support mental health in workplaces. Rooted in the framework of Total Worker Health(R), and the understanding that employers have an immense opportunity to impact the mental health of their employees, the module begins with a self-assessment survey. The survey helps organizations evaluate the management and workplace strategies they have in place to address mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, and substance use. After completing the survey, organizations receive instant feedback with evidence-based recommendations on ways their company can enhance its current programs and policies. Participants receive one-on-one advising to set goals and determine the steps to make real change in their workplace. The toolkit also includes an online training and a resource guide.
