Mental Health in the Workplace: An Accommodation Guide for Managers and Staff

Mental Health in the Workplace: An Accommodation Guide for Managers and Staff was produced by Mental Health Works to help employers and managers understand how to assist a colleague with a mental health concern and appropriately accommodate them in the workplace.

This guide outlines key skills employers and managers in Ontario workplaces should have when an employee presents a mental health concern. It’s divided into three parts that are intended to build awareness around mental health concerns and mental illnesses, teach appropriate responding skills, and inform organizations on ways to collaborate with employees to make the workplace more accessible.
