VIDEO: Pest Minds: Is mental health the employer's responsibility?

VIDEO

How can pest management businesses support mental health at work, and where does an employer’s responsibility begin?

In this session, Anna Mollins, founder of Pest Minds, explores how pest control companies of every size can create mentally healthy workplaces.

With empathy and lived experience, Anna covers:

  • Why mental health conversations are vital in pest management
  • What employers’ legal and moral responsibilities really are
  • Practical ways to make reasonable adjustments and support your staff
  • How sole traders can protect their own wellbeing
  • How open communication and flexibility can save lives.

Whether you’re an employer, technician, or a one-person business juggling everything, this talk will help you understand how small, human changes can make a big difference.
