HRD Corp claimable mental health training
Your levy is money you have already paid. If it goes unused, it is simply lost. Manager and employee mental health training is an eligible way to spend it, from RM185 per person.
Delivered in the room
Training your people turn up for
Sessions are run by facilitators who work with these topics every day, on site or online, in English, Bahasa Malaysia or Mandarin. Attendance and assessment are recorded, which is what your HRD Corp claim needs and what turns a workshop into evidence.
Why this matters now
Two things changed for Malaysian employers. The Section 18B duty to assess workplace risks now clearly covers psychosocial risk, with DOSH's PRisMA 2024 guideline setting out how. And training is one of the action themes a PRisMA assessment prescribes. Which means the training you can fund with your existing levy is also part of your compliance position, not just a development budget line.
The course catalogue
Supporting your team: manager essentials
Half day · managers and supervisors
How to notice when someone is struggling, what to say and what not to say, where the manager's role ends and professional support begins, and how to refer without breaching trust. Built around the situations your managers actually face, not theory.
Mental health awareness for employees
Half day · all staff
Stress, burnout and common mental health conditions in plain language, what support exists in your workplace and how to use it privately, and how to look out for colleagues. Reduces the stigma that keeps utilisation low.
Psychosocial risk for people leaders
Full day · HR, safety and health officers, senior managers
The Section 18B duty, what PRisMA 2024 expects, how work design creates risk, and how to read and act on assessment findings. The course we run most often after an assessment returns high risk work units.
Frontline and shift workforce sessions
Short form, on site · frontline teams
Compact sessions delivered at the workplace, scheduled around shifts, in the languages your workforce speaks. Designed for teams who cannot be released for a half day or reached by email.
Workplace wellbeing workshop
Up to 4 hours · online or on site · all staff
Our flagship claimable session: identifying workplace stress, promoting mental wellness, managing stress effectively, and using the tools and services available for emotional and mental health support.
Employee wellbeing e-learning programme
One year access · delivered in the eve & ai app
A self paced programme covering the same ground as the workshop, completed inside the app over the year. Suits dispersed and shift workforces that cannot gather in one room, and keeps learning claimable.
From RM185 per person. Delivered in English, Bahasa Malaysia and Mandarin, on site or online. Outcomes are stated per course and assessed, because HRD Corp claims require it and because training without assessment is theatre.
How the claim works
Check your levy balance
Log in to eTRiS, HRD Corp's portal, and check the balance sitting in your account. Most employers are surprised by the number.
Pick the course and dates
We confirm the course outline, trainer and quotation, which are the documents your grant application needs.
Apply for the grant before the course runs
Submit the application through eTRiS with our documents attached. Approval must come before the training date, so allow lead time.
Run the training
Attendance is recorded and the assessment completed, which becomes your evidence for the claim.
Submit the claim
After delivery, the claim is submitted with attendance and our invoice. The amount is drawn from your levy, not your operating budget.
We prepare the supporting documents for every course we deliver, and we will walk your HR team through their first application. If you want the checklist in writing first, ask us for the claim guide.
Who should attend what
Start with managers. They see problems first, they shape whether people feel safe speaking up, and manager communication is a prescribed PRisMA action theme. Then employee awareness, which lifts use of whatever support you already pay for. People leader training fits best once an assessment has told you where the risk actually sits; the assessment page explains that cycle.
Claims depend on your registration status and current HRD Corp rules; confirm eligibility in eTRiS before relying on a claim. Last reviewed 16 August 2026.
