Workplace Mental Health
At Carleton University, we take a holistic approach to supporting mental health in the workplace.
Mental Health Speaker Series
The Healthy Workplace “Mental Health Speaker Series” consisted of a variety of topics presented virtually by Carleton faculty members. The guest speakers discussed their research in the area of mental health and wellness. This speaker series was offered in partnership with the Department of Psychology, the Department of Neuroscience,the School of Social Work and the Department of Sociology & Anthropology.
Racism & Mental Health Speaker Series
In collaboration with one another, the Office of Quality Initiatives, the Department of Equity and Inclusive Communities, and the Centre for Indigenous Initiatives are happy to host the Racism & Mental Health Speaker Series, which will highlight the connections between racism and mental health.
National Standard for Psychological Health & Safety in the Workplace
The National Standard of Canada for Psychological Health and Safety in the Workplace (the Standard) is a set of voluntary guidelines, tools and resources intended to guide organizations in promoting mental health and preventing psychological harm at work. It is the first of its kind in the world. Carleton University adopted and has been committed to implementing the Standard since it was launched in 2013.
