Mental health exists on a complex continuum with experiences ranging from good wellbeing to debilitating states of suffering. According to WHO, 15% of the working adults suffered from mental disorders in 2019. Every year companies lose productivity due to depression and anxiety disorders. There are actions that companies can take to prevent mental health risks at work as well as support those with mental health conditions. This session will introduce some of the solutions to address the mental health continuum and focus on how companies can promote physical, financial, and mental health in the workplace.
