[HRDC Claimable] Mental Health Awareness & Skills in The Workplace

✅ HRDC CLAIMABLE PROGRAM

💾

This 1-day program equips participants with mental health first aid skills to recognise challenges, provide immediate support, and foster psychologically safe workplaces.

Mental health challenges affect 1 in 4 people globally, and in Southeast Asia more than 260 million people live with mental health conditions. In Malaysia alone, depression, anxiety, and workplace stress are on the rise, impacting both individuals and organisations.

In today’s workplaces, mental health is no longer a side conversation, it’s a critical factor in wellbeing, performance, and organisational resilience. Rising rates of depression, anxiety, and workplace stress highlight the need for proactive support and awareness.

Through guided learning and practical scenarios, participants will build the confidence to respond with empathy and know when to encourage professional help.

The outcome is a more mentally aware workplace - one where employees feel safe, supported, and valued, fostering stronger relationships, healthier teams, and a culture of care that drives long-term success.
