Addressing Mental Health Concerns with Employees RECOGNIZE THE SIGNS OF MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES • Be alert to changes in an employee’s: • Performance (e.g., decreased productivity) • Attendance (e.g., frequent absences) • Mood or attitude • Presentation (e.g., change in appearance) • These could indicate mental health struggles. Addressing these signs early can help prevent more severe issues. HAVE ONE-ON-ONE CONVERSATIONS • When you notice concerning changes in an employee, consider having a one-on-one conversation. Express your genuine concern for their well-being. • Focus on their overall health, not just work performance. • Encourage them to utilize available resources, such as your Assistance Program. • If you’re unsure how to start the conversation, don’t hesitate to reach out to your Assistance Program for guidance and support.
