Charity aids staff wellbeing

Shaw Trust, a national employment charity, has launched a one-stop shop for employers seeking to create healthier workplaces and manage the effects of medium to long-term sickness absence. The services include diversity management, mental health services, vocational rehabilitation services and web accessibility. Tim Cooper, managing director of health and wellbeing at the charity, said: "At a time when redundancy is a real threat for many, it is vital that employers pay attention to the wellbeing of their staff." Shaw Trust worked on giving disabled and disadvantaged people opportunities to work for a quarter of a century.
