Why Invest in Workplace Mental Health
A thriving workplace isn’t just about productivity it’s about creating an environment where employees feel supported, valued, and mentally healthy.
In India, 80% of employees have faced mental health challenges in the past year, but 39% hesitate to seek support due to workplace stigma. The cost of ignoring mental health is high, impacting not just individuals but business outcomes.
Why It Matters:
Reduced absenteeism and burnout
Improved retention and loyalty
Improved productivity and job satisfaction
Stronger team collaboration and communication
Enhanced emotional intelligence and leadership skills
