Mental Health and Employment — A Joint Enterprise

Abstract

For employers, like many members of the general public, mental illness is a scary subject — the more so that they don't know who to turn to if a member of staff starts to show signs of abnormal distress. Susan Scott‐Parker argues that if employers are going to be persuaded that it is in the interests of their business to take on people with mental health problems, then mental health professionals and support workers must pay more attention to what employers actually need.
