The Workplace Mental Health team at the Mental Health Commission of Canada (MHCC) will be hosting a virtual roundtable for the retail and hospitality sectors on October 27th, 2021, from 11 am to 3 pm Eastern Time. MHCC is seeking participants who are willing to discuss:
- Psychological health and safety challenges in their industry
- Workplace resources (e.g. tip sheets, guides, tools, videos, etc.) that are helpful/unhelpful

At this time, we will be capping the roundtable at 60 participants representing a cross-section of positions, industries, demographics, and regions, to encourage meaningful and insightful conversation. A cross section of participants will be selected from the applications received. Confirmation and materials will be sent to each participant that is selected to help them prepare for meaningful participation.
