Therapy In Business...

Therapy in Business has been set up to specifically provide a therapeutic service for employees in organisations/businesses of all sectors.

We contract and work in partnership with organisations to address and alleviate work-related stress and absenteeism of staff:

The Health and Safety Executive define stress as “the adverse reaction people have to excessive pressure or other types of demand placed on them”.

 Work-related stress accounts for over a third of all new incidences of ill health.
 Each case of stress-related ill health leads to an average of 30.9 working days lost.
 A total of 32.9 million working days are lost to stress, depression & other ill health (work related).
 
Reducing sickness absence costs to an organisation and dealing with stress are just some of the benefits to businesses, others can include:
 Employee commitment to work;
 Staff performance and productivity;
 Staff turnover or intention to leave;
 Staff recruitment and retention;
 Customer satisfaction; and
 Organisational image and reputation.

Our aim is to help organisations to comply with the law (particularly Health and Safety ACT 1974) that says that employers have the following duties:

 Under the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 to assess the risk of stress- related ill health arising from work activities; and
 Under the Health and Safety at Work etc Act 1974 to take measures to control that risk.

Counselling is key to providing immediate support for staff who may be experiencing difficulties either at work or at home, but which are having an impact on their performance at work.
