**This WiBF Masterclass offers 1 CPD Point**

Poor mental health costs the Australian economy an estimated at $70 billion annually, driven by lost productivity, absenteeism, presenteeism, and staff turnover. Yet, research consistently shows that investing in workplace mental health delivers strong economic and social returns.

This masterclass examines the concept of Mental Health in the Workplace and its role in fostering mentally healthier, more productive, supportive and resilient workplaces. Mental Health in the Workplace equips employees and leaders with the knowledge required to help recognise early signs of mental health challenges, as well as the tools to provide immediate support, and guide colleagues toward professional help.

Through an interactive session, participants will:

• · Understand the economic and organisational impact of poor mental health in the workplace.
• · Learn how to identify common mental health challenges and recognise the warning signs.
• · Gain practical skills to help reduce negative stigma and initiate supportive conversations.
• · Learn how Mental Health in the Workplace can be integrated into broader wellbeing and leadership strategies to help strengthen culture, trust, and performance.

Participants will leave with a clear framework for action, empowering them to play a proactive role in building workplaces where wellbeing and productivity can thrive side by side.
