Linked: A Leader’s List Of Mental Health Concerns At Work
There are a number of things in the article below to consider, but this is definitely the most timely:
“A profound lesson from the pandemic supports this theory, when so many people were suddenly relocated to home offices. We discovered (or rediscovered) that productivity rises when we leave people alone for hours at a time to work without interruption. Those gains are lost when we revert to interruptions, expecting employees to respond nearly immediately to endless incoming emails and messages.”
Linked – Are employees getting enough mental health support in 2024?
However, what I want to talk about is the 46% of employees who are not “confident that employers care at least moderately about their mental health.”
That’s a lot of employees at risk of leaving. After all, why continue to work for an employer who doesn’t appear to care about you? Consider the wording of that survey; they only asked if you feel confident that your employer moderately cares. Not that they care deeply. Not that you feel important to them, just whether there is evidence that you moderately care about their mental health. How much effort does it take to show that you care just a little? Yet almost half of employees don’t see it from their employers.
That’s a shame. The improvement is nice, but there’s a long way to go on this
