A Sex & Gender-Based Analysis (SGBA) Toolkit
Introduction
Health Canada and the Public Health Agency of Canada partnered with the CIHR Institute of Gender and Health to support sex and gender experts Ivy Bourgeault, Vivien Runnels & Jelena Atanackovic to create “Mental Health in the Workplace: A SGBA+ Informed Toolkit”. This provides managers and employees with promising tools and resources.
Mental health and psychological safety at work are heavily influenced by sex and gender. Recognizing this can help managers build their capacity to support employees’ mental health in the workplace.
This toolkit contains sections on specific topics on mental health and psychological well-being with explicit considerations for men, women and people with diverse gender identities.
We have updated the toolkit with resources specific to workplace mental health during the COVID-19 Pandemic.
