Here are some things we observed.

Example table 1 Supporting people with mental health problems in employment: challenges and recommendations

Challenges Recommendations

Mental health services People with mental health problems often lack self-confidence. Employ coaches who can sensitively but assertively provide encouragement to apply for work.

Employers Mental health problems can fluctuate. Employers accommodate flexible working patterns such as reduced hours or phased return.

Government People fear that if they return to work but cannot cope, it will take a long time to reinstate their benefits. This may prevent them from seeking work. Improve the flexibility and responsiveness of the benefits system.
