It is widely recognised that stress is a major contributor to sickness and absence in the workplace Recent research has shown that 12.8 million working days are lost to mental illness every year and aproximately 3 in 10 employees will have a mental health problem of some sort in any one year.
The costs to an organisation can be high,therefore the business benefits in tackling these problems have a positive effect on organisational expenses, attendance, productivity and staff morale.
As part of their Management Standards, the Health & Safety Executive(HSE) recommend that businesses ensure that therapeutic interventions are available. They go on to state that "using Cognitive Behaviour Therapy approaches to work-related stress are more effective that some other treatments". This is one of the theories we work with in our counselling service.
It is recommended that the employee has approximately 6 - 8 sessions.
Sessions can be arranged outside working hours if preferred. Sessions are held at our clinic in Western Ave., Port Talbot For further information please contact Wendy Price
