To support their customers in protecting the mental health of workers, EML Group have launched a new learning course, created in collaboration with Australian workplace mental health experts Mindarma. Available to all EML Group customers through its EMLearning platform, The Introduction to Psychological Resilience course will support organisations to become more proactive in their approach to mental health.
The free course explores the latest research, dispels common myths and provides practical advice regarding how organisations can safely enhance psychological resilience and wellbeing. It also features expert insights from workplace mental health specialist and Mindarma Principal Psychologist, Dr Sadhbh Joyce.
“Prevention must be the priority and it’s incredibly important that every organisation conduct proper psychosocial risk management. When risks are identified that cannot be eliminated, it’s vital other safeguards are put in place. Through our research and work with first responder agencies, we have found evidence-based training can be a valuable resource. When we equip workers with the right psychological skills and strategies, it can significantly enhance resilience and reduce risk,” says Dr Joyce.
There is currently a huge appetite for organisations to better understand resilience and know what they can do to protect workers. The collaboration between EML Group and Mindarma will allow organisations to access reliable, researched information in a simple, practical format.
To further support organisations in protecting workers, EML Group customers will be able to access Mindarma’s evidence-based e-learning program at discounted rates. Proven to enhance psychological resilience and wellbeing, the Mindarma program currently supports thousands of Australian emergency service workers and others in high-risk roles. The award-winning program teaches a range of practical skills and strategies, which can help learners better navigate the many challenges of work and daily life.
