Research: Mercer - Solving The Mental Health Epidemic
In light of these and other issues (including stress), Mercer has produced the results of its research into solving the mental health epidemic.
Included in the findings is:
- The worrying statistic that 64% of managers admit they have had to put the interests of their organisation above that of staff wellbeing
- The fact 43% of people earning £25,000 or less have a mental health diagnosis, compared to 25% of those earning more than £70,000
The research explains Mercer’s own ‘Eight Dimensions of Wellbeing’ and how other employers could use them to help solve some of their own wellbeing issues.
