Highlights

EU-OSHA’s latest guidance for workplaces focuses on supporting individuals experiencing mental health problems. Changes in working environment, hours and patterns, as well as tasks and equipment are some of the practical measures it describes to help and retain workers after a sickness absence. The report also recommends treating mental health with the same occupational safety and health (OSH) approach as physical health issues.

A review on good workplace practices and a set of policy recommendations complement the suite.

Discover also the European Commission's comprehensive mental health approach and a web portal of best practices. 

The European Disability Employment Package also offers a guide on reasonable accommodations.
