Summary
Poor mental health costs businesses and the UK economy £102 billion last year and globally £2.1 trillion. Data from AXA’s Mind Health Study shows that 53% of people in the UK are experiencing an absence of positive wellbeing or signs of emotional stress/distress. The cost of living crisis has exacerbated the stresses on individuals and businesses alike.
The workplace environment is a significant contributory factor to mental health which can include problems sleeping, lack of confidence, feelings of stress and burnout.
Individuals with certain protected characteristics are more likely to experience poor mental health or challenges.
What is the impact of not addressing this?
Poor staff/ job satisfaction, absenteeism, presenteeism, increased days lost to sickness absence, and high staff turnover, to name a few.
