Employee relations teams are often the ones brought in when situations are heavy, emotional or complex and mental health can be part of the story even when it is not the stated issue. The challenge is responding with care while staying consistent, knowing when to bring in the right partners and having resources in place so ER is not carrying it alone.
Join us on May 21 for a practical conversation on how ER teams are approaching this work today, featuring panelists Jamie Black, Manager, Employee Relations, Qualtrics; Valyncia Raphael-Woodward, Executive Director, Employee and Labor Relations, University of Southern California; and Sara Burkhalter, Lead Solutions Consultant, HR Acuity.
Durning this session, you’ll learn:
- How ER leaders triage cases where mental health may be a factor and determine the right next step, including escalation triggers and clear handoffs
- How ER builds the cross-functional relationships that matter most in these moments, including partnering with EAP, benefits, Legal, HRBPs, security and leave or accommodations teams
- What resources and supports organizations are putting in place to make this work more sustainable, including playbooks, crisis protocols, debriefs and practices that reduce burnout on ER teams
