Sign the Petition: stronger-legislation-to-prevent-discrimination-against-mental-health-in-workplaces

Hi,

I would like to see stronger legislation in place to prevent discrimination against mental health in the workplace. Particularly in cases where mental health issues are caused by burnout in the workplace.

Why is this important?

Its important because anxiety and depression can affect one in 6 people. As one of them I want to be able to contribute positively to society. I want to be able to be able to work. I want to be able to work with an organisation where having anxiety does not mean I live in fear of loosing my job if my employer finds out. Or be discriminated from promotions or progressing in an organisation if they know I have anxiety. I want to fulfil my potential and be treated with dignity not with misunderstanding or stigma.

If you want sign I would really appreciate it and thank you.
