The survey was undertaken by Public Health England (PHE) West Midlands working in collaboration with Health Education England (HEE) West Midlands and Learning for Public Health (LfPH) West Midlands.

3. Improving Mental Health and Wellbeing
Public Mental Health Content Guides
Two new workforce development resources produced by PHE with FPH and published by HEE.
They provide guidance on public mental health content for courses, training and also personal learning and professional development:
1. For public health staff at practitioner or specialist level (aligned to the PHSKF) 2. For wider workforce introductory learning (aligned to the 12 core principles of PHE’s
WD framework)
These are part of a wider programme of work with HEE as part of our Prevention Concordat, Five Year Forward View for Mental Health and our Public Mental Health Leadership and Workforce Development Framework.
Content guides for mental health promotion and prevention courses for public health academic courses and professional training programmes, and for introductory courses for professional development in mental health and wellbeing can be viewed via the following link:

New Health and Wellbeing Framework & accompanying diagnostic tool to help NHS organisations plan & implement their own approach for improving staff health & wellbeing:
http://www.nhsemployers.org/your-workforce/retain-and-improve/staff-experience/health-work-and-wellbeing/health-and-wellbeing-framework
This framework has been developed by NHS Employers, NHS England and NHS Improvement with support from partners across the NHS, voluntary sector and government to bring best practice, research and insights together in one accessible place for the first time for NHS organisations.
The Health and Wellbeing Framework in an interactive document that makes the case for staff health and wellbeing, sets out clear actionable steps for each of the 14 areas and includes guidance on how organisations can plan and deliver a staff health and wellbeing

plan.
The framework and diagnostic tool have been designed to be used in a flexible way to meet the needs of your organisation. You can use these resources in total or in part to start, revise or re-launch a programme. The framework is divided into two sections, organisational enablers and health interventions.
The three health areas (mental health, musculoskeletal and healthy lifestyles) have emerged through working with NHS organisations and reviewing national data on absence, presenteeism and the staff survey. Interventions fall under two categories:
• Prevention and self-management – these are approaches to keep people well at work through good working conditions, timely training and information and the skills needed for self-management.
• Targeted support – these are targeted, clinically appropriate interventions for staff in need of specific healthcare and support, such as counselling and physiotherapy.
WM Combined Authority’s Thrive at Work Wellbeing Toolkit and Workplace Wellbeing Research Trial – registration closes 31 st August
https://www.wmca.org.uk/what-we-do/thrive/thrive-at-work/
West Midlands Combined Authority has been asked by the government to carry out, in partnership with RAND Europe, Warwick Medical School and Warwick Business School, an evaluation of the effectiveness of a programme to help Small to Medium Sized Enterprises (SMEs) to improve the health and wellbeing of their employees.
We would like to invite your organisation to take part in a randomised control trial which is designed to establish the extent to which receiving a financial grant and/or guidance and a toolkit, results in employers doing more to support the health and wellbeing of their employees.Not all organisations will receive a financial grant however all organisations will receive the Thrive at Work Commitment with criteria and guidelines on creating a workplace that promotes employee health and wellbeing and a supporting toolkit of local and national resources, policies and services to make it clear and easy for you to take positive action to improve health and wellbeing.
