Employers
have
a
legal
duty
of
care
to
protect
their
employee’s
mental
health
and
improve
their
well-
being.
As
an
employer,
you
can
help
manage
and
prevent
stress
by
improving
conditions
at
work.
But
you
also have a role in making adjustments and helping someone manage a mental health problem at work.

According

the
NHS,
people
with
mental

problems
frequently
suffer
discrimination

and
unemployment

more
than

Its all very well reminding employers of their

being, As employees we also have a duty to
communicate and engage professionally with
our employer / manager if we become
unwell, be it physical or mental.
EMPLOYEES…
Why is it important?
According
to
experts
,
one
in
four
of
us
will
endure
mental
illness
whilst
being
an
employee.
If
you
are

means
you

employees
if
not
now
then
in

and
those

do

directly from them,

Before your project
disposes of timber
please consider
donating your bonfire
material to us. We’ll
put it to really good
use, and by doing so as
will you.
Timber
Used in combination
with soil and plants,
tyres make an
excellent low level
retaining wall and can
be made invisible with
ground-cover.
Excellent when used to
make ‘living walls’.
Tyres
Not suitable for
aesthetic purposes,
rubble consists of fist
sized chunks of
concrete and brick
used as backfill/infill
for retaining walls,
under sheds, summer
cabins, and patios.
Rubble
Decorative stone is
used in walls, building
fascias and for focal
points such as water
features or in Zen
inspired spaces.
Stone
Reinforcement bars
(Re-bars) are always
needed and are used
to create structures
such as retaining walls,
railway sleeper beds,
steps, trellis work, and
foundations. Even
lengths down to 1 m
are useful, so offcuts
and ends too please.
Steel
Perhaps not actual
gold, but we do deeply
appreciate the local
donations we receive
from companies, and
individuals looking to
improve a family’s life
in Jersey.
Gold
Many corporate
sponsors provide their
own volunteers from
within their company

are keen to get stuck in
because they can.
