Mental Health In The Workplace

People living with mental illnesses want the same healthy workplace environments as everyone else. Ignoring mental health in the workplace causes massive losses in a business’ bottom line and creates hardship for employees. With statistics showing that 1 in 4 adults has a diagnosable mental health disorder, it is time for us to be proactive in our workplace policies. Whether you are an employer looking to create a space with mental health in mind or an individual searching for a supportive environment, we will examine some key components to supporting mental health at work.
