Session
The HSE reported in November 2024 that 1.7 million workers reported they were suffering from work related ill health. The statistics reveal high levels of workplace ill health and workplace stress, anxiety and depression with a rising cost to the economy estimated at over £21 billion. In this interactive workshop, Weightmans will take a look at some of the common causes of stress and anxiety in the workplace, identify the different types of claims that arise from stress at work, the potential liabilities both from an employment and civil liability perspective. Hannah and Nick will include top tips for avoiding such claims and also take a look at what’s on the horizon!
