We are just over half way through the third year of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Nexus Employee Assistance Programs have proved to be an important focus for many organizations in developing and maintaining a mentally healthy workplace. Nexus Psychology continues to prioritise employees and we make a commitment to provide the highest quality counselling services offered in a timely manner.
Below are links to poster representations of mental health considerations for business owners and managers around current and emerging workplace challenges.
There are also a few relevant guides developed by the National Mental Health Commission in conjunction with the Mentally Healthy Workplace Alliance to support the mental health and wellbeing of Australian workers.
Released in 2022 The Mentally Healthy Workplaces and COVID-19: Emerging Issues series provides organisations with expert insights and tips to address key challenges impacting workplace mental health. The guides also connect organisations to further sources of information and support.
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 and sleep
• Creating mentally healthy hybrid teams in the recovery from COVID-19
• Responding to varied COVID-19 concerns in the workplace
• Supporting people experiencing post-COVID-19 syndrome
