As awareness of mental health in the workplace continues to grow, so too do the legal expectations placed on employers. But many organisations are still unclear on where their responsibilities begin and end - and what meaningful support really looks like beyond compliance.  This panel brings together legal and practical expertise to unpack the duties employers must meet, the risks of getting it wrong, and how to create a workplace that genuinely supports mental wellbeing.
