Improving mental well-being in the workplace
Manor House Thrupp, Oxfordshire, OX5 1JY, UK
Occupational physicians, who are in a key position to influence company policy on mental health, have limited access to education on mental health. This paper discusses the results of a postal survey of occupational physicians that was designed to identify the mental health information needs of occupational physicians, determine the way in which this information should be disseminated and measure the extent to which occupational physicians encounter mental health problems in the workplace.
