Taking Care

Whilst Physical Health and Safety is a way of life in industry today, every UK business also has a duty of care to include the wellbeing of its employees.

UK statistics show, 3 in 5 people have or have had mental health issues due to work. Promoting and protecting employee wellbeing in the workplace is important for each and every business.

There are multiple factors that influence the health and wellbeing of employees, and understanding and overcoming these issues can result in a range of benefits for both the individual and the wider business.

Mental wellbeing is relevant for all employees, which means every individual can play a part in improving it in the workplace. By addressing these issues, businesses can improve the general wellbeing, reduce absenteeism, lower staff turnover, increase productivity, and help promote the employment of those who have struggled with mental health..

Addison operate in an inclusive and transparent way, creating a safe environment for employees to openly discuss any wellbeing issues that arise. Support is always provided with our management team recognising the importance of the topic and its effects.

All of our employees are provided with Mental Health awareness training, and we have dedicated Mental Health First Aiders qualifying through MHFA England.
