Psychological Health & Safety An action guide for employers | Persistence Persistence Sustainment of effective actions in a process of continuous improvement. Even where workplace interventions have been successful, it is challenging to ensure that they are sustained. Lasting change requires communicating and sustaining actions shown to protect PH&S. Successful actions should be celebrated and incorporated into ongoing practice. The aim is to incorporate a continuous improvement cycle that will keep the psychological health initiative alive and relevant to changing conditions. Outcomes should be well-documented, effectively communicated to key decision-makers and championed by influential players. Change is more likely to ‘stick’ if it becomes part of the organizational culture and has wide support across levels. It is valuable to create a sustainability plan. What would help? Best-in-class programs to educate supervisors on their role in supporting their people in recognition of those at risk and in returning to work; “train the trainer” approach to ensure best practices are taught to all HR professionals; continued exposure to the issues (stigma, nature of illness, etc.) in the popular press to educate all workers on the issues and what needs to change. - Executive, Disability Insurance Carrier 41
