About Us

In Equilibrium has been designing and delivering training solutions for organisations since 1998.  We specialise in practical, evidence-based training for managers and employees in areas that have a positive influence on wellbeing.  These include stress management, resilience, mental health, equality, diversity and dignity at work.

Our in-house courses can be delivered in person and live online by experienced trainers who are subject experts within their field.  They deliver their training with enthusiasm and sensitivity.  This is summed up in our mission statement:

“To provide training and consultancy services
to enhance resilience,
health and wellbeing in the workplace
in the most professional, efficient and cost-effective way.”

The CIPD has reported that stress and mental ill-health are cited among the top 4 causes of long-term absence (absence of 4 weeks or more).  However, to get the full picture, it is now recognised that the overall cost to employers of poor mental health is the combined costs of absenteeism, certain causes of presenteeism, and employee turnover. According to Deloitte's Mental health and employers, The case for investment - Pandemic and Beyond report, “These have increased in total by 25% since the start of the pandemic, up to £53-56 billion in 2020-21, which equates to over 2.6% of the UK's annual Gross Domestic Product.

However, the good news for employers is that in terms of financial return Deloitte's financial analysis indicates, “According to our analysis, the estimated return for employers investing in measures to tackle mental health problems is on average £5.30 for every £1 invested.”

With it being clear that employee wellbeing is an area that no employer can afford to ignore, we offer a range of face-to-face and virtual training solutions.  Options include full-day training workshops, half-day awareness sessions, bitesize seminars, corporate coaching and consultancy services.  Our website also provides a wide range of free resources relating to our specialist subject areas which are regularly updated.

We have earned a reputation for providing high-quality training and consultancy, which represents excellent value for money.  We are proud of the high level of repeat business we achieve and have the flexibility and resources to deliver our services to any organisation, irrespective of size or location.  But please don’t just take our word for it, view some of our client testimonials.
