Thriving in Manufacturing Feedback to Participants

The goal of the Thriving in Manufacturing project was to support manufacturing businesses to build capability to use the Mental Wellbeing by Design process. The process enables businesses to engage with workers to identify psychosocial risks, and to redesign work to prevent harm to people. The project was run in 2023 and 2024 and was supported by ACC, the Mental Health Foundation an the Business Leaders’ Health and Safety Forum. From a pool of 38 organisations that attended initial workshops about the project, 9 went on to run it within their businesses. Champions for this work came from both HR and HSE roles.
