Only 1 in 3 companies have a mental health strategy in place – and most of those organizations are not measuring their outcomes. Almost 50% have little to no awareness of the Standard.

Investing in mental health has clear benefits on the bottom line. Companies with mental health programs in place for one year had a median annual ROI of $1.62 for every dollar invested – with the ROI more than doubling for companies with programs in place for three or more years.

The economic costs of mental health issues are massive – projected to set back the Canadian economy at least $88.8 billion. The bulk of these costs are borne by employers.

Areas of Support

Workplace Psychological Health & Safety (PH&S) Assessment

Our comprehensive Work Environment Assessment helps organizations align with best practices by identifying strengths, opportunities for improvement, and actionable steps to enhance organizational PH&S.

PH&S Employee Survey

Our PH&S Employee Survey provides a comprehensive survey of employee perceptions as they pertain to psychological health and safety across various worker groups, work units, and departments/areas. The intended outcome is to better understand strengths and ongoing opportunities for improvement within an organization, and to add depth and breadth of understanding of PH&S. The PH&S Employee Survey is complementary to the PH&S Work Environment Assessment.

Psychologically Safe Leader Assessment

Best practices identify the unique responsibility that people leaders have in promoting workplace PH&S by demonstrating psychologically safe leadership skills. Our Psychologically Safe Leadership Assessment process provides individualized or group-based assessments and action plans for management and leadership teams. We also offer leadership and employee coaching services.

Psychologically Safe Team Assessment

PH&S is a shared responsibility - and all employees, at all levels within an organization, have a responsibility to contribute to PH&S and demonstrate psychologically safe interactions. Our Psychologically Safe Team Assessment process provides group-based assessment and action plans for teams. A psychologically safe team is one where all members are equipped to deal with work challenges effectively, are able to contribute their best work, and feel safe to speak up about concerns when they arise.

PH&S Workplace Strategy and Consultation

We place a strong value on building internal capacity within organizations to support PH&S, and are available to provide as-needed strategy coaching/consultation to your team. We offer flexible approaches that meet your unique needs - all the way from advising on how to implement internal PH&S Surveys/Organizational Reviews, to helping you grow an internal PH&S Champion team, and supporting you in developing metrics for evaluating the effectiveness of your programs and policies.
