The United Minds Campaign wants change, government and employers must play their part. 

The campaign is calling for:

• New legislation around workplace stress and psychosocial risk – a law that sets out clearly duties to conduct specific risk assessments and the steps taken to control the risks 
• Employers to ensure workplace stress risk assessments and consideration of psychosocial hazards are undertaken 
• Bringing about codes of practice to ensure employer assistance and support programmes for mental health are consistent and of high quality
• Employers must ensure their mental health support programmes are fit for purpose
• Work related suicides to be reportable to HSE under Riddor. 
• Specific guidance and training for government agencies such as HSE, ORR, local authorities around specific enforcement actions available in this area
•  Establish a tripartite forum that includes unions, employers, and government, specifically to discuss and agree intended laws, codes of practice and guidance in this area.
