³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ aims to ensure that the mental health of staff is respected, protected and improved in their work.
It wishes to create a culture in which staff who experience mental health difficulties can disclose these without fear of stigma and be provided with reasonable support to cope with their work successfully.
³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ recognises that work can and should be beneficial to health and that poorly organised or supported work can harm health.
³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ endeavours to provide every staff member with a satisfying job and appropriate support to enable staff to fulfil their rules without undue pressure.
