Workplace
Mind Blank helps workplaces develop healthier, happier employees who know where to turn for help in times of crisis.
Workplace mental health is not just a buzzphrase; it's a necessity.
Have you ever asked yourself any of the following?:
- How can we raise awareness and encourage open conversations about mental wellbeing with our employees?
- What strategies is our organisation implementing to reduce stigma around mental health?
- How can we ensure our staff is prepared to recognise and respond to a mental health challenge?
- These are just a few of the many questions we address in our Mind Blank Workplace Wellbeing Programs.
Boosting Employee Mental Health and Wellbeing
Employees spend a significant portion of their adult lives at work.
Mental health directly affects employees’ performance, job satisfaction and overall quality of life. A mentally healthy workforce is the foundation of a thriving organisation.
Employers have a vital role to play in safeguarding the mental health of their staff.
A compassionate and proactive approach to mental health not only fulfills ethical obligations but also makes good business sense.
Healthy and happy employees are more engaged, creative and loyal, leading to increased productivity and reduced turnover.
It’s a fact: investing in workplace mental health pays off.
Mental health issues can lead to absenteeism, presenteeism (when employees are at work but not fully productive) and increased healthcare costs. By addressing these issues, companies can significantly improve their bottom line by fostering a healthier, more motivated workforce.

Workplace Mental Health Training
Mind Blank partners with organizations of all sizes and industries to create customized workplace mental health programs. Our approach is holistic, focusing on prevention, early intervention and destigmatisation of mental health challenges.
Using a light-hearted and comical approach, difficult topics are addressed in a safe, non-threatening environment. Facilitators and professional actors use real-life examples and skits to teach resilience and critical skills.
Our most popular workplace training sessions address burnout, stress, conflict resolution and management/subordinate relations. Participants also learn how to recognise subtle warning signs that someone may be experiencing a mental health challenge and how to access services for crisis response.
We offer a range of workplace mental health programs, including:
1. Mental Health Workshops
We provide engaging workshops that raise awareness about mental health, reduce stigma and equip employees and managers with tools to maintain well-being and respond to challenges.
2. Interactive Forum Theatre Performances
Our professional actors present skits based on real-life mental health issues. Audience members engage with the performers, providing feedback and “directing” the actors to utilise various responses.
3. Online Resources
We offer a wealth of educational materials and resources tailored to the workplace, from toolkits to specialised video modules, providing ongoing support for employees and managers.
4. Consultation and Strategy
We work closely with employers to develop mental health strategies that align with their unique organisational culture and goals.
Some of our Workplace Partners include:
