Improved Recruitment and Retention - The Power of a Supportive Environment


Creating a supportive work environment is not just a nice to have, it’s essential for improving job satisfaction and productivity.
In fact, employees who feel supported are more likely to stay and thrive in their roles, leading to higher retention rates and a more engaged workforce.

That’s why Someone to Talk To is proud to offer the Accredited Employer Scheme, an initiative that is designed to help employers create a mentally healthy workplace.

The accreditation recognises businesses that prioritise mental health and demonstrates a commitment to supporting employees through their mental health challenges.

Achieving the Accredited Employer status means you’re taking tangible steps to ensure your workplace is inclusive, supportive, and aware of mental health issues. It also signals to your employees and potential recruits that you value their well being and are willing to invest in their mental health, a crucial factor in both recruitment and retention.

When employees feel supported by their employer, whether through mental health resources, emotional support, or simply a safe space to talk, they are more likely to be engaged, motivated, and loyal.

A culture that prioritise's mental well-being isn’t just better for individuals, it’s better for business.

Join us in fostering a healthy, productive environment where people feel valued. 👏
