The Importance of Workplace Well-Being

According to the Mental Health Foundation, one in six employees experiences mental ill health annually. Many factors contribute to mental ill health, including domestic abuse, stress, trauma, bereavement, suicide ideation, and menopause. These challenges may not always be work-related, but employers must adopt a holistic approach to workplace well-being to support their staff effectively.


Many people fear saying the wrong thing or making matters worse, but early intervention is essential.  Empowering managers and employees to have open, informed discussions about necessary support benefits both individuals and organisations.


Why Workplace Domestic Abuse Awareness Matters

Domestic abuse does not stay at home—it affects every aspect of an individual's life, including their work. Employers who acknowledge this reality and take proactive steps to support affected employees help foster a safer, more productive workplace. Evidence shows that organisations reducing stigma and strengthening management skills in workplace well-being experience numerous benefits, including:


  • Improved staff retention
  • Reduced absenteeism
  • Increased employee engagement
  • Higher productivity levels
  • Seamless alignment with CSR strategies


Our Specialist Training Courses

We offer comprehensive training courses designed to enhance the knowledge and confidence of workplace welfare champions, HR professionals, line managers and general employees.


Our courses focus on:


Domestic Abuse Awareness:  Training employees to recognise the signs of domestic abuse and respond appropriately.


Domestic Abuse Workplace Champions:  Specialised training for key personnel to act as dedicated support points within the organisation.


HR Staff & Line Manager Training:  Equipping leadership with the tools to manage disclosures and provide appropriate support.


Beyond training, Nexus Insight Academy offers:


  • Policy Review and Development: Ensuring company policies reflect best practices and legal compliance.


  • Signposting to Support Services: Connecting employees with local and national domestic abuse and mental health support resources.


Creating a Supportive Workplace Culture

A workplace that prioritises psychological well-being creates a safe, supportive environment for all employees.  By taking proactive steps to support domestic abuse survivors and mental health awareness, businesses not only fulfil their legal duty of care but also cultivate a positive, resilient workforce.


Nexus Insight Academy is here to support your organisation in implementing a holistic approach to workplace well-being. Prioritising the health and safety of employees leads to stronger, more engaged teams and a thriving business.


Join us in making a meaningful impact—because every employee deserves a safe and supportive workplace.
