The Job ft. Dr Krystal Wilkinson - How can employers support maternal and paternal mental health & how can you return to work successfully after perinatal mental illness?

  • Summary

  • Professor Dr Krystal Wilkinson is an advocate for change in the workplace after her own experiences of perinatal mental health opened her eyes to the value of supporting employees and employers for a positive transition.

    Krystal shares her experiences of depression and how a supportive work environment helped her build back her confidence and recover. This inspired her work focussing on women’s reproductive and mental health in the workplace. She tells us about the report she received and the benchmarks of standards all employers should be setting for their teams.

    She also discusses the misconceptions around Keeping in Touch or ‘KIT’ days and shares her thoughts on planning a successful return to work after parental leave.
