A free online mental health platform has today been launched to support Tasmanian businesses and help their employees with their mental health.
The Head4Work platform aims to support workers to better understand how to manage mental health risks at work, along with showing managers what they can do to support their staff.
This past year has been extremely challenging as businesses and the community have responded to the COVID-19 pandemic, and Head4Work will help those Tasmanian businesses and their employees that have done it tough and need extra support.
