The document summarizes the findings of a two-year EU project on mental issues in job centers. The project surveyed over 600 professionals in eight countries. It found that most job center staff encounter clients with emotional and mental problems daily but feel unprepared to help due to a lack of training. In response, the project developed a one-day training course covering the adverse mental effects of unemployment and improving staff communication and support skills. Staff who completed the course highly rated its benefits. However, the document notes jobseekers remain cautious about disclosing issues to staff.
