Under the Rug at Work

Managing mental illness with Kate Simpson


Listen Later

People are often afraid to disclose mental health conditions at work for fear of being discriminated against or treated differently. But on the flip side, managers often don’t ask for their team to disclose any ill health because they may not know what to do, how to manage staff with an illness or they are confused by anti-discrimination laws, especially if they need to manage performance.

Nicole Turnbull talks to Kate Simpson, founder of EmploySafe Legal about the difference between neurodivergence and mental ill health, what managers and employers need to know when it comes to the law and how to set your team up for success.
