Specialist mental health support for your employees
At Zurich we don’t just cover, we’re here from setbacks to comebacks.
Mental health can have an impact on every part of our lives, from our daily routines, relationships, physical health, and even our finances. It can shape our defining moments and influences us every day.
At Zurich, we understand the impact mental health can have in the workplace. That's why you have access to a wide range of mental health resources to support you and your employees – helping turn a setback into a comeback.
Specialist mental health expertise
Our fully qualified and registered mental health nurses are experienced in stress management, change management, handling difficult conversations, managing conflict, building resilience, and mediation.
Help from an Employee Assistance Programme
Employees, and their immediate family members, have access to structured counselling sessions, available face-to-face, over the phone, or online. They also have unlimited access to a 24/7 confidential helpline, with qualified counsellors on hand 365 days a year to offer friendly advice and guidance. The service also includes online cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) sessions with exercises designed to help with anxiety, depression and more.
Mental wellbeing app
Thrive is a corporate mental wellbeing app designed to help with common stressors like sleep difficulties, bereavement, and workplace challenges. It can help detect, prevent, and manage stress, as well as screen for mental health concerns like anxiety and depression, using NHS-approved assessments. And if someone needs immediate support the app will signpost them to appropriate sources of help, including crisis lines and NHS services.
Suicide prevention support
Facing a situation where someone is experiencing suicidal thoughts or expressing intent to take their own life can be deeply shocking and distressing.
Our ‘Raise the Alarm – Suicide Prevention Support’ toolkit offers practical guidance and best practice advice to help you, and your employees, be prepared for this type of situation.
The toolkit includes in-the-moment guidance to help responders stay calm and ask the right questions when managing an active suicide threat.
It also provides guidance on how to identify employee at risk of suicide, as well as how to support colleagues affected by suicide.
Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) training
You can strengthen their workplace mental health strategy by joining one of our accredited MHFA training courses, delivered in partnership with Mental Health First Aid England.
