EcoOnline, a leading SaaS technology company for chemical safety, EHS and ESG, today announces the launch of its Partner Programme, empowering partners with a flexible, solution-driven framework designed to help them scale and adapt to meet their clients’ specific needs. The programme provides structured training, certification, and operational support, along with compelling commercial benefits ensuring partners are equipped to deliver tangible results and long-term customer value.

A Programme Built for Measurable Impact
Developed in response to feedback from existing partners, the EcoOnline Partner Programme goes beyond traditional vendor offerings by focusing on clear, measurable joint value creation in common customer scenarios. Partners will receive the same structured training and enablement as EcoOnline employees through the Partner Academy.

As Nicholas Graham, Managing Director at Safety Risk Management commented, “We are thrilled to be part of EcoOnline’s Partner Programme. Unlike other vendor programmes, which can sometimes feel like they lack substance, this programme promises real, tangible outcomes for us and our customers. The structured training and support through the Partner Academy are exactly what our teams need to set customers up for success and ensure seamless delivery from start to finish.”

Expanding Access to EcoOnline’s Full Product Suite
A major benefit of the Partner Programme is its ability to grant partners full access to EcoOnline’s comprehensive range of solutions, including EHS (environment, health and safety)ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance), and Chemical Management. This creates new opportunities for partners by empowering them to broaden their service offerings, tailor solutions across diverse industries, and meet a wider range of client needs. 

Gary Patrick from QSM Group expressed enthusiasm about this: “We’ve worked with EcoOnline for years in the EHSQ space, but being part of the new Partner Programme will give us access to their entire product portfolio, which will make a huge difference. This programme will enable us to drive real, immediate impact for our customers.”

Diverse Models for Partner Engagement

The Partner Programme offers a range of engagement models tailored to different partner types and business strategies. They allow partners to align with EcoOnline’s solutions in ways that best suit their own goals, helping them deliver exceptional value to their clients. The partnership models include Value-Added Resellers (with silver, gold and platinum tiers), Associate Partners, Strategic Alliances, Technical Alliances and Managed Services Providers.

“We’ve designed the EcoOnline Partner Programme to deliver real value for our partners,” said Gareth Palmer, SVP Channel Partnerships & Alliances at EcoOnline. “By listening closely to their needs, we’ve built a programme that provides the tools, knowledge, and product access necessary to create measurable impact.”

Driving Global Expansion and Future Growth
With 62 active international partners preparing for the programme’s launch, EcoOnline is set to further extend its reach in the coming months. This will include the introduction of new tools, such as a self-service partner portal, and active participation in EcoOnline’s global sales and customer events. The programme plays a key role in EcoOnline’s strategy to increase partner-driven revenue to 15% next year, with a focus on regions including ANZ, Asia, and the Middle East.

Veriforce CHAS, the UK’s leading provider of compliance and risk management solutions, has warmly welcomed the release of the new white paper, Prioritising Mental Health in the Workplacelaunched by the Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) Stakeholder Alliance to mark World Mental Health Day on 10 October.

Through the white paper the group of leading UK health and safety organisations have come together to address workplace mental health challenges. It urges the Government, employers, and workplace health and safety leaders to take decisive action to tackle mental health issues at work.

Veriforce CHAS has been active in championing mental health causes in the construction sector, supporting Causeway Technology’s campaign to improve the sector’s poor track record. Construction sees the second highest rates of suicide in the UK, and Veriforce CHAS is working with Causeway as well as supporting the charity Lighthouse to raise awareness and improve the situation.

Although the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) has prioritised the reduction of work-related ill health—particularly mental health and stress—over the next decade, the number of people leaving work due to mental health problems is not declining. Alarmingly, these numbers continue to rise.

The report highlights troubling statistics from the HSE, revealing that 875,000 people in Great Britain experienced work-related stress, depression, or anxiety in 2022-23, resulting in over 17 million lost working days.

In response, the white paper stresses the importance of collective responsibility in improving mental health, urging everyone to play their part. It calls on employers to embed mental health at the core of their organisational strategies, advocating for stronger protections and a more robust promotion of mental well-being in the workplace. 

Proactive approach to mental health

Veriforce CHAS has already been proactive in addressing mental health concerns within the construction sector. In April 2024, the organisation launched its voluntary Mental Health & Wellbeing Evaluation, which has seen widespread industry adoption with 8,000 contractors having now completed the mental health module.

The Mental Health & Wellbeing Question Set is designed to encourage construction companies to implement best practices around mental health. It empowers contractors and buyers to demonstrate their commitment to well-being initiatives within their organisations and supply chains. By completing this evaluation, contractors can showcase their efforts to create supportive workplaces, which may include documented mental health policies, training programs, and flexible work arrangements for staff dealing with mental health issues.

Furthermore, Veriforce CHASs Client Portal provides hiring clients with access to critical information on contractors’ mental health practices. This transparency enables businesses to make more informed decisions, ensuring their choices align with their values and drive positive change across the sector.

Driving industry-wide change

The launch of the Mental Health & Wellbeing Question Set followed work with Causeway Technologies, which introduced a campaign and mental health pledge aimed at elevating mental health awareness in the construction industry.

Commenting on the launch of the white paper, CHAS Managing Director Ian McKinnon stated: We welcome this fresh focus on mental health through the OSH Stakeholder Alliance white paper. Having influential organisations rally behind this critical issue will undoubtedly raise the profile of mental health across all sectors, driving meaningful change.

He added, The strong uptake of our voluntary question set has been highly encouraging. For our part we will continue collaborating with industry partners, including Causeway Technologies, to champion mental health and wellbeing initiatives across the sector.

Today, October 10th, marks World Mental Health Day, a global initiative dedicated to raising awareness about mental health and promoting mental well-being. This year’s theme, “It is time to prioritise mental health in the workplace”, focuses on the need to address mental health challenges in professional environments and create supportive, mentally healthy workplaces.

Why Focus on Workplace Mental Health?

Mental health in the workplace is becoming an increasingly pressing issue. According to Mental Health Foundation research, 1 in 6.8 people experience mental health problems in the workplace. Stress, anxiety, and depression are among the most common mental health issues faced by employees. Moreover, the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) estimates that 17 million working days were lost due to work-related stress, depression, or anxiety in the UK between 2021 and 2022.

The cost of mental health problems to UK employers is also significant, with an estimated £56 billion lost annually in reduced productivity, higher turnover, and absenteeism, according to a study by Deloitte. Despite these challenges, many workplaces still struggle to openly address mental health issues, leaving employees unsupported.

This year’s theme emphasises that it’s time for employers, organisations, and employees across the UK to actively prioritise mental health in the workplace. A supportive, healthy work environment is not only beneficial for employees but also for a company’s overall success and sustainability.

Breaking the Silence Around Mental Health at Work

Stigma surrounding mental health is still a major barrier to employees seeking help. Many workers worry that disclosing mental health issues could negatively impact their job security or career progression. This often leads to people suffering in silence, with many too afraid to speak up until their problems escalate.

Building a workplace culture that promotes open discussion about mental health is essential. Employers can play a key role in this by creating a safe, non-judgmental space where employees feel comfortable addressing their mental health needs.

How Employers Can Prioritise Mental Health

There are several ways employers can take proactive steps to support their employees’ mental well-being:

  1. Offer Mental Health Support: Ensure that employees have access to mental health resources such as Employee Assistance Programs (EAPs), mental health days, and counselling services. Some companies now provide mental health first aid training, which equips employees to offer initial support.

  2. Foster a Positive Work Environment: Promote a culture where mental health is openly discussed, and employees feel comfortable raising concerns without fear of stigma. Offering regular check-ins and creating spaces where staff can express their concerns can help create this environment.

  3. Promote Work-Life Balance: Encourage flexible working arrangements, manageable workloads, and proper breaks. The rise of remote and hybrid work models has blurred the lines between work and personal life, so it’s more important than ever to ensure employees take the time they need to rest and recharge.

  4. Provide Training for Managers: Equip line managers and leaders with training on how to recognise signs of stress, anxiety, and other mental health challenges in their teams. Knowing how to support employees and direct them to appropriate resources can make a significant difference.

The Role of Employees in Prioritising Mental Health

Employees can also take steps to look after their own mental well-being at work. Here are some tips for maintaining mental health:

  • Set Boundaries: Establish clear boundaries between work and personal time, especially for those working remotely. Make time for breaks and try to log off at the end of the workday to prevent burnout.

  • Communicate Your Needs: If you are feeling overwhelmed, don’t hesitate to speak with your manager or HR team. More and more workplaces are developing policies and resources specifically designed to help employees manage their mental health.

  • Practice Self-Care: Incorporate stress-reducing activities into your daily routine, whether through exercise, mindfulness, or taking time to disconnect from work.

It’s Time for Action

This World Mental Health Day is a call to action for workplaces to prioritise mental health. Companies that actively support their employees’ mental well-being can not only reduce absenteeism and improve productivity but also create a more engaged and loyal workforce.

Looking Ahead

As the world of work continues to evolve, addressing mental health in the workplace will remain critical. By prioritising mental health, UK employers can foster a workplace culture that supports the well-being of their employees, leading to healthier, happier, and more productive teams.

This World Mental Health Day 2024, let’s make mental well-being a priority across UK workplaces. Whether you’re an employer, manager, or employee, take steps tomorrow to create a positive, supportive environment where mental health is championed and respected.
