The announcement was made at NHS Employers' annual conference in Birmingham and comes on National Stress Awareness Day (4 November), coinciding with the launch of an employers' website from Time to Change as part of their campaign to end mental health discrimination.
The campaign, Open Your Mind, will help employers to create a better working environment for staff and improve employment rates for people with mental ill health.
Launching this winter, it aims to reduce stigma, mythology and misperceptions around mental health and employment. It will identify and share best practice among NHS organisations.
