The Office of the Secretary of State for Wales is unable to disclose the number or proportion of officials in the Department citing stress as a reason for sick absence in the last twelve months as the data relates to fewer than five staff, and releasing the data would risk the identification of individuals.<\/p>
Sick leave for reasons relating to stress amounted to 33% of total sick leave days in the Department in the 12 months to 31 March. The cost of officials taking sick leave was £14,117.<\/p>
The physical and mental wellbeing of our staff is crucially important to the department and staff have access to all employee services that help to sustain physical and mental wellbeing, including Occupational Health and a 24-hour employee assistance helpline.<\/p>

The Ministry of Defence\u2019s (MOD) Civilian Sickness Absence data has been published on the GOV.UK website since January 2016 and the latest available edition can be found at the following link:<\/p>
<\/p>
https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/mod-civilian-sickness-absence-financial-year-201718.<\/p>
<\/p>
Data relating to the 12 month period to 31 March 2019 is due to be published on 13 June 2019.<\/p>
<\/p>
The MOD takes the health and wellbeing of its personnel very seriously. The Department\u2019s Health and Wellbeing Strategy for all MOD employees, military and civilian, is designed to provide guidance to the chain of command and civilian line managers on how to manage the health needs, both mental and physical, of their people. The aim is to maximise the number of people fit to work, managing people back to work after a period of sickness, so that they are fit and able to meet the requirements of Defence outputs, including operational effectiveness. In 2017, the Department also launched its Defence People Mental Health and Wellbeing Strategy 2017\u20132022 with a four-step plan of implementation; promotion, prevention, detection and treatment.<\/p>
<\/p>
All civilian staff can access the Department\u2019s Employee Wellbeing Service which offers emotional support and advice on life events as well as counselling services. In addition, the Speak Safe helpline provides a safe space to discuss issues relating to bullying, harassment and discrimination. The Department also has over 2,000 civilian and military Mental Health First Aiders, each of whom has completed a two-day course delivered in accordance with the requirements of Mental Health First Aid England (or equivalent).<\/p>
<\/p>
The MOD offers a range of flexibilities to enable a better work-life balance for civilian employees. The department recognises that by enabling employees to create a good work-life balance it benefits by attracting and retaining high calibre staff.<\/p>

The earliest that the UK can leave without a deal is 31 October 2019. Our priority remains delivering the deal to ensure a smooth and orderly exit before this date.

As a responsible government we\u2019ve been preparing to minimise any disruption in the event of no deal for over two years and will continue to prepare for all Brexit scenarios.<\/p>
