There is mounting body of research revealing the tremendous personal and economic costs of mental illness in the workplace. Yet, mental illness is a subject many workplaces still don't know how to talk about. CMHA BC Division invites business leaders, frontline and senior managers, human resource specialists, union representatives, benefit providers and mental health service providers to join us at the 2007 Bottom Line Conference, Mental Illness in the Workplace: The Elephant in the Room. Gain insight, be inspired and learn how attention to mental health and mental illness in the workplace will help retain valuable employees, increase employee health, well-being and productivity, as well as decrease absenteeism and disability claims. This year's speakers include Margaret Trudeau, Dr. Linda Duxbury, and Dr. Allan Young. At the Vancouver Convention and Exhibition Centre, 999 Canada Place, Vancouver.
