First Aid in Mind
Employers
The National Standard of Canada Psychological Health and Safety in the Workplace was introduced in Jan 2013. It is a voluntary standard but highly recommends practices which prevent harm to worker psychological health.
In so doing, workplaces have improved employee engagement, enhanced productivity and higher profit levels.
