FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
New York, NY, July 2020:
People avoid change. In the last few months, everyone across the globe were shoved out of their comfort zone – from going for a run in the park, to buying groceries, to the little things we took for granted. Like toilet paper. As we all try to adapt to this “new abnormal”, mounting stress is carried into work. Employee wellbeing now confronts every employer in every country like never before. Although its relevance increased in recent years, the current global health event forced employers to rethink the importance of understanding employees’ state of mental health and overall wellness. Right now[1], employees are experiencing significant change with perpetually elevated anxiety and stress. Extensive research indicates that happier employees increase productivity from 12% – 20%[2]. As stress increases, performance, customer service, and product quality plummets.
To address this reality, capturing and addressing employee’s mental health will be a top business issue for the next 6 to 12 months at almost every company, in almost every country on the planet.
