Creating a Supportive Workplace with Tom Oxley
Manage episode 433954785 series 2286647
In this episode, we talk about ways to support mental wellness in the workplace. The guest this time is Tom Oxley, Workplace Director at Bamboo Mental Health.
Tom is an independent consultant specializing in mental health at work. He reviews employers, gives talks, and trains people. His material comes from 100s of interviews with employees who have experienced poor mental health – and more than 35 organizations that he has reviewed, from PLCs to local SMEs. He believes any employer can support any employee on mental health – but not at any cost. Tom spoke at the World Congress on Health and Safety and you can see his TEDx talk here.
Questions for Tom include:
- Why is supporting mental wellbeing important to you?
- Presenteeism costs 1.8 times more than absenteeism. How can managers be better at spotting signs of stress and/or anxiety?
- You spoke earlier about "grown-up conversations". You believe that "any employer can support any employee on mental health – but not at any cost". You also promote supporting employee mental health "while keeping boundaries" What do you mean by this?
- You spoke at the Disrupt session within the Cambridge AI Summit on June 18. Tell us about your session.
- You recently spoke at the 23rd World Congress on Safety & Health at Work. Tell us more.
- How can organizations achieve psychological safety in the workplace?
