Fórsa represents over 30,000 staff who deliver health and welfare services in our hospitals and communities. Many of them deliver mental health services to the public. All of them encounter the challenges of mental illness in the workplace.

Fórsa’s Health & Welfare Division have devised this short survey to discover your views on mental health issues in your workplace, and how they are handled by management and the union. You can access the survey here.

We hope you’ll take a few minutes to complete the nine simple questions in this survey. It will help the union develop policies and campaigns to work for healthy workplaces for all our members, and improve attitudes towards mental health issues.

As you complete this survey, bear in mind that mental health includes our emotional, psychological and social wellbeing. It affects how we think, feel and act. It also helps determine how we handle stress, relate to others, and make choices. There’s nothing unusual about experiencing or encountering mental health problems at work or elsewhere, and it’s important to know that help is available.

The survey is fully anonymous, and we comply fully with GDPR requirements. You are not obliged to divulge any personal information – and if you do, it will be treated in the strictest of confidence.

The survey remains open until 30th April 2019.

Many thanks in advance for your participation.
