This webinar ended on 14 September 2023.

What can you expect?

1 in 5 people will experience mental illness in their lifetime – and yet there is still a stigma that surrounds asking for help – especially at work. As employers, we have a duty of care to foster an environment that supports our employees’ mental wellbeing and create a psychologically safe space. R U OK? Day is an opportunity for Australian employers to not just educate their employees about the importance of checking in on each other, but also promote a culture where employees feel safe enough to answer honestly.
