Mental health and Wellbeing at Ofgem

Our mental health group is a network of Ofgem staff passionate about promoting and facilitating good mental health in the workplace and at home.

We provide a listening ear and help for staff who may need additional support and care to cope with poor mental health. We aim to normalise conversations about mental health at Ofgem so it is a natural agenda item at meetings across all levels, and discussed in 1-2-1s when needed. 

We offer:

• Direct support through an expanded network of mental health first aiders in Ofgem
• A network of local champions in many of the teams throughout Ofgem to promote good mental health at team level 
• An advice hub on Ofgem’s intranet and regular internal communications on mental health issues to encourage self-care and mental-health best practice 
• Close contact with Ofgem’s human resources teams to encourage and steer improvements for colleagues experiencing poor mental health.
