Legal News Wales readers are invited to join Chambers Wales South East, South West and Mid, the Mindful Business Charter to look at how we manage the root causes of stress in the workplace.

According to Public Health Wales, these costs arise from lost productivity, absenteeism, presenteeism (employees being present but not fully productive), and increased healthcare expenses. In the 2022-2023 period, UK employers faced a financial burden of £51 billion due to poor mental health in the workplace (PHW.NHS).

What to expect

Join us at the Chambers Wales SESWM Men’s Health Network and see how you can create a healthier, more profitable, and productive workplace and take care of your own mental health at work, in collaboration with the Mindful Business Charter (click here for more information).

About the Mindful Business Charter

Founded in 2017 by senior professionals in the legal and banking sectors, the Mindful Business Charter was created in response to the growing mental health crisis in high-pressure industries. The Charter, launched in 2018, focuses on a permissive framework rather than a prescriptive rulebook, encouraging open dialogue and the elimination of unnecessary stressors in the workplace.

Today, with over 100 organisations worldwide, the Charter continues to build a community of businesses committed to fostering healthier, more sustainable work environments.
