Mental wellness affects more than just individual well-being—it shapes the health of workplaces, economies, and entire communities. When neglected, the ripple effects can lead to significant challenges on every level. For organisations and leaders, addressing mental health is no longer optional—it’s a critical responsibility for ensuring sustainable growth and societal resilience. Are you equipped with the right tools to rise to this challenge?
Why Mental Wellness Is a Business Imperative
The global mental health crisis is an organisational issue with far-reaching consequences. Here’s what we’re facing:
- Burnout Is Rampant: 76% of employees experience burnout at work, with nearly 30% feeling consistently overwhelmed. (Source: Gallup)
- Generational Differences Matter: 31% of employees aged 18–24 took time off for stress in 2024, compared to only 13% of those over 55. (Source: CIPD)
- Productivity Losses Are Costly: Mental health-related absenteeism and presenteeism cost UK employers an estimated £51 billion annually. (Source: Deloitte)
The Cost of Doing Nothing
Neglecting mental health in the workplace leads to:
- High Turnover Rates: Organisations with inadequate mental health support see up to a 50% increase in employee turnover.
- Decreased Team Performance: Untreated mental health conditions result in 5–6 hours of lost productivity per employee each week.
- Damaged Employer Branding: Poor wellness strategies make it harder to attract and retain top talent.
