Mentally healthy workplaces and COVID-19

The Mentally Healthy Workplace Alliance and the National Mental Health Commission have developed a new set of guides to support workplaces in responding to issues arising from COVID-19.  

The guides focus on practical ways we can all work towards a mentally health workplace as more Australians return to workplaces and manage various COVID-19 concerns, such as fear of infection.  

The series includes: 

• Helping people return to workplaces after extended periods working at home during COVID-19   
• Strategies to support wellbeing of decision makers through periods of sustained pressure     
• Identifying and managing fatigue and burnout during COVID-19   
• The hidden impact of COVID-19 on sleep 
• Creating mentally healthy hybrid teams in the recovery from COVID-19   
• Responding to COVID-19 concerns in the workplace     
• Supporting people experiencing post-COVID-19 syndrome.

The new guides complement the Mentally Healthy Workplaces during COVID-19 resources released in 2020 with a focus on addressing current challenges.
