Mental illness is common, affecting 1 in 5 of us at some time in our lives. Nearly every workplace will have someone who experiences episodes of mental illness from time to time, and it is important therefore, that they feel supported in the same way as someone with any other illness or disabling condition, such as asthma, diabetes or a hearing impairment, for example. Work is an important part of all our lives. It not only gives us an income, but also a place to learn new skills and meet other people. Getting back to work can also be an important part of recovery from an episode of mental illness.
