WSPS Mental Harm Prevention Roadmap Year-Two Study
12
Very few problems were reported with the Roadmap.
When queried about aspects of the Roadmap that could be improved, suggestions were
varied and described as minor. No consistent problem was reported. A few respondents
indicated they were not sure how to make the best use of their meeting time with the
WSPS consultant. This might have been due to the timing of the meetings which
occurred after each building block. Organizations were encouraged to work on building
blocks that were most useful to them and not necessarily all of the building blocks.
Therefore, if the organization were not taking steps related to that building block it may
not have been clear how to make use of the time with the WSPS consultant that was
scheduled after each building block. There was some feedback that more interaction
such as Q and A time with Dr. Howatt and discussion and engagement/networking with
the other companies in the project would have been appreciated. Because of the terms
"Roadmap" and "Building Blocks," a few participants reported they often mistakenly said
"roadblocks." One organization indicated that the term "mental" fitness index brought
stigma associated with mental health and perhaps lowered employee participation in
their company.
Sample comments:
"nothing comes to mind"
"Can't think of anything"
