This two-part e-workshop is a 'can't miss' for those that are looking to better understand mental health in the agricultural workplace. A topic that has taken the workplace by storm, even before COVID, but only amplified by the pandemic.
While many organizations are making great strides to address this topic, there is still so much work to be done. What’s the big picture when it comes to mental health in the agricultural workplace? Gain a clear understanding of the population with mental health challenges, types of mental health conditions as well as what this means for the agricultural workplace. Let’s open the dialog for ourselves, our employees, our peers, our organization and our industry.
