"More than 25 million people in the UK spend a large proportion of time at work. Because the world of work is such a major part of our lives, it plays a significant role in how we feel. However, until recently the focus on health at work has largely concentrated on protecting against physical risk, with little focus given to the hazards posed to mental health by work and the working environment." (TRAINING JOURNAL) This article examines mental health in the workplace and attempts to provide answers to the following questions: "How do we recognise mental health problems? Who is at risk? And what is the impact to the workplace?"
