Just as we’re getting on top of one pandemic, another one is on the way: the struggles with Mental Health.
The current pandemic is also fuelling the rise in loneliness, anxiety, depression and suicide.
You can learn to be a lifeline for anyone struggling: learn to spot the signs, how to start that all-important conversation and make a difference in someones’ life
Don’t take our word for it: Forbes states
‘A positive workplace culture improves teamwork, raises the morale, increases productivity and efficiency, and enhances retention of the workforce. Job satisfaction, collaboration, and work performance are all enhanced. And, most importantly, a positive workplace environment reduces stress in employees’
Almost two thirds (60%) of all work-related absence is due to stress, anxiety and depression. This is a pre-covid statistic (we’re still waiting on current figures) but imagine what those numbers are now?
Leaders of organisations and employers have a duty of care toward the people around them to take greater steps towards alleviating the mental pain they are suffering. Everyone wins from this: the individual, their families and loved ones, the organisation and the community.
The cost to businesses in England is around £36 billion a year, and to the economy as a whole, the bill is about £106 billion annually. Suddenly a small investment by you seems like a drop in the ocean.
