Privacy Policy

Well aHead -‘providing psychological health solutions’ understands the pressures and needs of both employers and employees working in industry. The efficient structure of Well aHead means that we can offer a local, flexible service which meets the needs of local industry, cutting out the high costs often associated with national counselling schemes.

Staff stress and the pressures and demands of business, continue to increase, which can reduce output and efficiency. Sometimes employees have problems at home, which are not your fault but will impact on your company.

The Health & Safety Executive estimates that up to 60% of work absence can be traced back to various forms of stress. For most companies staff are their most valuable asset. Therefore many employers understand that strategically targeting a small amount of money at a problem could keep key staff working.

Benefits to Employers

• Gain access to expertise that you could not afford to provide in-house
• Complement your existing human resource package

• £203,000 paid by Worcester County Council to a former employee made ill by work related stress
