Despite greater awareness about the need to pay attention to the psychological as well as the physical aspects of people’s health and wellbeing at work, our survey showed that there was some way to go before the majority of employers develop a robust framework in this area. If people have good mental health, and feel supported during times of poor mental health, they will feel more motivated, engaged and productive at work. Employers cannot afford to ignore people’s mental health in the workplace.
Our report, Employee Outlook: Focus on mental health in the workplace, found that more than three in ten (31%) had experienced mental health problems while in employment. This figure was higher for female employees at 36% and 46% in respect of people working in the voluntary sector.
