Services and products for banks

We have partnered with mental health charity Mind to develop a mental health training programme tailored to the needs of the banking sector. The programme is designed to enable line managers to support a mentally healthy workplace.

The programme, which has been successfully piloted by four major UK banks, consists of five modules which are compatible with most learning management systems.

The pilot has been independently evaluated by the CiPD, who found that managers were positive about the training and felt:

• More skilled at noticing signs of poor mental health
• Clearer on their responsibilities concerning employees' mental health
• More confident in supporting their direct reports who are experiencing mental health problems
• More able to have conversations about mental health in their workplace

The Thrive: Mental Wellbeing app is designed to detect, prevent and manage common mental health conditions, using clinically proven techniques like CBT and mindfulness.

The app can provide anonymised data on prevalent stressors among your users, allowing you to fine-tune your wellbeing approach. It can also be customised to direct users to other wellbeing services, such as your EAP. 

We can work with you to complement your wellbeing programme through our thought leadership and research. 

Our Wellbeing Pulse blog delivers the latest in thinking, research and techniques across the four pillars of workplace wellbeing: psychological, physical, social and financial.

Our whitepapers, which explore specific wellbeing themes in more detail, are designed to highlight examples of good practice and to support banks in developing their own wellbeing strategies. Read our whitepaper on mindfulness in the workplace.

We produce a range of materials to help you support your employees' health and wellbeing. These include videos, infographics and podcasts which provide practical advice on key subjects such as mindfulness, the benefits of good sleep and the importance of financial wellbeing.

These materials have been developed to be placed on your intranet, emailed to colleagues or displayed in your office and are available via our Bank Resource Centre.
