A recent study by People at Work 2022: A Global Workforce View revealed that 45% of the UK workforce acknowledges their work being affected by poor mental health.
14% of UK of UK workers experience stress at least once a week, while 19% feel stressed every day. Sirsha Halder, General Manager, APD UK, Ireland & South Africa, comments: “Managers must be able to identify when staff are struggling with stress or overwhelmed by their workload. Whether they are working from home or on the premises”. Furthermore, Mental health charity Mind revealed that a third of adults and young people say their mental health has gotten much worse since March.
Employers have a duty to create a supportive workplace environment. Also giving staff the opportunity to talk freely about any problems they are facing. Especially if they are suffering from poor mental health. 78% of employers actively seek new ways to support the mental health of their workforce, there is still room to improve to ensure all colleagues are comfortable and feel supported.
