Charter for Employers

The Charter for Employers who are Positive About Mental Health is not an accreditation or a set of quality standards nor a policy or target. It's about working towards the principles of it not the immediate fulfilment of them – signing up is a step along a journey not the end of it. The Charter is a voluntary agreement which seeks to support employers in working within the spirit of its positive approach. Employers can be involved in the MINDFUL EMPLOYER initiative without signing up to the Charter but many employers use it as a tangible display of their commitment to improving the working lives of their staff.

The employers shown below are all the current signatories to the Charter for Employers who are Positive About Mental Health. They have each have made a commitment to work towards the aspirations of the Charter (each name carries a link). Being a Charter signatory doesn't mean 'getting it all right' - but it does indicate a willingness to work towards better practice.

To sign up for the Charter and add your name to the list shown below simply download the Information Pack and complete the 'Our Response' form.

The Charter signatories shown above represent over 1¼ million employees. To date, over 300 signatories have completed their first review of their commitment to the Charter (which takes place two years after signing) and over 50 are currently undertaking it. Nineteen employers have completed their second, 5 year, review with 16 undertaking it. Since MINDFUL EMPLOYER began in October 2004, a number of signatories have since either ceased operating, merged with another organisation or withdrawn for a variety of reasons and some employers have had their Charter revoked due to not completing the review process or not paying the administration fee - these are not shown above.

Several other employers are actively considering making this important demonstration of their commitment to their employees. It's open to any employer - small, medium or large; public, private or voluntary sector, anywhere in the UK. See which Charter signatories are in your part of the UK
