Wellbeing in the Workplace

Course Aims:

This is a short course for health and social care staff that tackles the sensitive subject of stress in the workplace. It takes a positive look at how staff can recognise and deal with work-related stress, focussing on talking about their concerns and issues so that raising the matter is seen as a strength in wanting to do their job well.

An introduction to this subject is also found in Careskills Health and Safety course as it is a requirement that employers address this in their workplace, to ensure that staff are confident that they are able to do their job to the best of their ability without the pressures of feeling stressed and unhappy at work.

The training helps learners to take control of their feelings and talk to their employer about anything happening in the workplace that may make them or their colleagues feel like they are unable to cope with things at work.

This training is for staff working in settings such as Care Homes, Hospital Wards, Day Centres, or supporting an individual in their own home.
