Taking Stock of Workplace Mental Health

After more than two decades of workplace mental health moving up the organisational agenda, where do we stand today? This keynote offers an honest stocktake of the current landscape, examining where meaningful progress has been made, where the evidence suggests change has stalled, and the challenges that continue to shape the relationship between work and health. Looking beyond the headlines, it reflects on how attitudes have shifted, where organisations have made genuine advances, where significant gaps remain, and what the wider picture tells us about the future of workplace wellbeing, providing a clear, evidence-based assessment of the state of the nation and setting the context for the conversations that follow throughout the day.
