Avery Walters Solicitors, has demonstrated its commitment to employee wellbeing by signing the Mindful Employer Charter, a national pledge for employers who are positive in their approach towards mental health and wellbeing. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The Charter aims to increase awareness of mental health in the workplace and helps businesses to provide a supportive working environment. 
 
Across the UK there is a wide range of employers who are involved with the Charter and have access to relevant information, training, networking and practical support. 

 

The Charter contains six values, which we fully embrace: 
 
 
1. To provide non-judgemental and proactive support to staff experiencing mental ill-health 
2. To not make assumptions about a person with a mental health condition and their ability to work 
3. To be positive and enabling toward all employees and applicants with a mental health condition 
4. To support line managers in managing mental health in the workplace 
5. To ensure they are fair in the recruitment of new staff in accordance with the Equality Act (2010) 
6. To make it clear that people who have experienced mental ill-health will not be discriminated against, and that disclosure of a mental health conditions will enable both the employee and employer to assess and provide the right level of support or adjustment.
