This week, Lucinda talks to occupational health specialist, Anna Harrington, about the ways in which we can better ensure that the wellbeing and health of our people remains a priority as our workforces prepare to return to life as normal in 2021.

 KEY TAKEAWAYS
People are tired, and also our resilience may be on the wane after over a year of lockdown. Therefore, we must prepare for the presence of ongoing issues as our people return.
Occupational health is about assisting a business and helping it thrive, both for itself, and through individual cases.
Indeed, stress, anxiety and depression have begun to play a much larger role in the duties attended to by occupational health specialists in the sector.
We must seek signs that are otherwise perhaps hidden from view, when it comes to people's mental health suffering. Certainly, these can present themselves in the form of performance issues at work.
