    As HR professionals, we often deal with employee situations involving medical issues, which may include mental illnesses. Our presentation will explore mental illness in the workplace and touch on:

    • The difference between mental health and mental illness
    • The legal mandates to accommodate people living with mental illness
    • The impact on your bottom line for addressing vs. not addressing mental health concerns
    • How a mentally healthy workforce affects morale and corporate culture
    • What to do or how to react when an employee discloses a mental illness
