United Pledge

The United Pledge is focused on obtaining the commitment of governance boards and leadership teams to building a discrimination-free and psychologically safe working environment.

Through the United Pledge, leaders will be required to commit to a program of systemic change right across their organisation; delivering an environment where all staff feel safe, supported and can thrive.

The United Pledge will offer a joined-up and science-backed tailorable framework and implementation roadmap that is whole of organisation, efficient, instructive and complements existing wellbeing and detection programs.

By empowering the Boards and Executives of organisations to take action, the United Pledge provides the opportunity to acknowledge fundamental problems in policy, management systems, behaviour and work spaces.

The United Pledge intends to recognise organisations for their efforts, investment and commitment to the mental health and wellbeing of their employees through an internationally recognised accreditation.

 

The four stages of the United Pledge

1. The Commitment

A signed 'pledge' by an organisation's leaders to commit efforts and resources to the development of a mental healthy workplace

2. The Assessment

To measure the organisation's progress along the mental health continuum and to use these insights to inform planning and priorities

3. The Priorities

To leverage expertise and established guidelines to support changes to current policies, processes, systems and behaviours

4. The Accreditation

To acknowledge the organisation's progress towards meeting industry best practice
