5 Mental Health Mental health is not just the absence of mental disorder. It is defined as a state of well-being in which every individual realizes his or her own potential, can cope with the normal stresses of life, can work productively and fruitfully, and is able to make a contribution to her or his community Source: The World Health Organization (WHO) 5
6 Workplace Possibilities Creating a mentally healthy workplace leads to: Higher job satisfaction, engagement, morale, retention and productivity and boosts civility and respect Strengthens working/team relationships and can help reduce lost time due to mental health issues Encourages people who are facing challenges to seek help sooner Improves health and safety overall and makes good organizational sense 6
7 Mental Health at Work People with mental health issues successfully work across the full spectrum of workplaces Some people choose to disclose their mental illness and some do not Most importantly, people with a mental illness can succeed or fail just like any other worker 7
8 Why learn about mental health? Up to 1 in 3 of employees will experience some form of mental impairment during their working lives Most frequent issues are depression, anxiety, and misuse of alcohol and other drugs Stigma can be a barrier to progress at work recognize that mental health issues can affect anyone at any time 8

Oudyk, OHCOW Hamilton Clinic, Ontario
19 Stressed Workers-Canada In Stats-Can Survey 2010 report (Compton, 2011): 27% of working adults in Canada aged report most days their lives were quite or extremely stressful Why? Survey indicates that 6 out of 10 workers cited work as main reason (62%) over time management and finances (12% for both of these) for their high-stress condition Source: Compton, Susan. What s Stressing the Stressed? Main sources of stress among workers, Stats Canada
20 Work & Stress-Dr. David Posen Posen s Prescription: two ways to eliminate stress: Get rid of what s there e.g. exercise or meditate Eliminate the source e.g. overwhelming workload, unrealistic deadlines, difficult supervisor In truth, it is a combination of both individual stress management and changing organizational stress factors Source: Is Work Killing You? A Doctor s Prescription for Treating Workplace Stress, House of Anansi Press, Toronto (2013), p. 291,
21 Survey Choices
22 Guarding Work 22
23 Guarding Work 13 Factors are ways to measure the way work is carried out and the context in which work occurs Source:
24 COPSOQ Survey COPSOQ means Copenhagen Psychosocial Questionnaire (Short, Medium and Long versions) Focuses on measuring psychosocial hazards including stress, e.g. work demands, organization, relationships, values and offensive behaviours Does not measure PF5 (meaning: Psychological Competencies & Requirements) e.g. Emotional Intelligence, Self Motivation, Job Fit Measures factors beyond Guarding Work Source:
25 COPSOQ Survey Provides a series of tools, including COPSOQ modified survey, to help take action on regarding the organizational factors that contribute to workplace stress and mental distress Source:
26 COPSOQ Survey Mental Injury Tool (MIT) Group COPSOQ version also had Organizational Culture questions added: How would you rate the psychological health and safety climate in your workplace? To what extent would you agree that the culture of this organization tolerates behavior that harms the mental health of those that work here? Source:
27 COPSOQ Survey Mental Injury Tool Group also added Safety Factors (10) to ensure they were measured: 1) Radiation (ionizing and non-ionizing) 2) Driving hazards 3) Biological hazards 4) Dangerous chemicals 5) Workstation ergonomics Source:
28 COPSOQ Survey Mental Injury Tool Group also added Safety Factors (10) to ensure they were measured: 6) Physical factors (noise, lighting) 7) Thermal comfort 8) Air quality 9) Safety hazards 10) Working alone Source:
29 CCOHS Journey to Date
30 CCOHS Journey to Date Why? The big questions are always WHY and HOW let s discuss WHY? Right thing to do Moral, ethical, good for business Leader in health and safety field Share our successes, challenges, best practices to help Canadians 30
31 CCOHS Healthy Workplace Model 31
32 CCOHS Journey to Date How? HOW are we doing this Created a new workplace committee/team 5 individuals represented by 1 manager/champion and 4 workers All from different Service Units which brought different knowledge areas to the table June 2015 Results of Discussion Group Facilitation 32
33 CCOHS Journey to Date How? HOW are we doing this Put together project charter Outlined goals, objectives/deliverables, outcomes/measures Set target dates for each step and tracking June 2015 Results of Discussion Group Facilitation 33
34 CCOHS Journey to Date How? Scope of project was important decided that we weren t addressing individual s mental health but rather focus efforts on the workplace/organizational factors that could negatively and/or positively affect someone s mental health at work 34
35 CCOHS Journey to Date How? Collectively reviewed the Standard document Evaluated various tools to help with implementation MIT/COPSOQ, Guarding Work Selected Guarding Work Surveyed all staff using the Guarding Work survey We had 80% response rate 35
36 CCOHS Journey to Date How? Our survey report indicated 1 red flag and 4 significant concerns Just a quick background on GM@W: 68 question survey Received report, broken down by Risk Factor Average score out of 20 and fall into a range of Serious Concern / Significant Concern / Minimal Concern / Relative Strength 36
37 COPSOQ and Guarding Minds Differences in surveys/deployment: COPSOQ (worker-oriented) requires some support & intervention e.g. Occupational Health Clinics for Ontario Workers (OHCOW) helps people deploy survey Guarding Work Survey (managementoriented) created primarily for organizations who need to deploy a turn-key survey e.g. pre-determined reports, outlines basic advice Also, what is measured between two surveys differs 37
38 Survey Results 2013 Continue to focus in on what was prioritized by survey respondents: Organizational Culture Clear leadership and expectations Civility and respect Growth and development 38
