Mental health affects how people think, feel, behave, and work. It also affects legal risk. This course explains how mental health fits into UK employment law, including employers’ duties under health and safety legislation and the Equality Act 2010. Using real-world storytelling rather than legal jargon, it explores work-related stress, mental health conditions, reasonable adjustments, absence, and return-to-work scenarios. Designed for UK workplaces, the course helps managers and employees understand what good practice looks like, how to have supportive conversations, and how to avoid the mistakes that often lead to grievances, sickness absence, or Tribunal claims. The focus is practical, balanced, and aligned with ACAS guidance.
