Mental Health at Work: Commitment guide for the housing sector

Mental Health at Work cover

This CIH guide, developed with charity Mind, sets out six commitments to make everyone who works in housing more aware and supportive of other people’s mental health issues – and better supported to look after their own.

It shines a light on how to prioritise mental health in the workplace by developing and delivering a systematic programme of activity, as well as working to ensure that organisational culture and work drive positive mental health outcomes.

  • Commitment One: Prioritise mental health in the workplace by developing and delivering a systematic programme of activity
  • Commitment Two: Proactively ensure work design and organisational culture drive positive mental health outcomes
  • Commitment Three: Promote an open culture around mental health
  • Commitment Four: Increase organisation confidence and capability
  • Commitment Five: Provide mental health tools and support
  • Commitment Six: Increase transparency and accountability through internal and external reporting
