Workplace Mental Health: C-suite Responding to the Now and Forecasting Investments for the Future

-

Trust is a responsibility and a fragile commodity that rests on societal pillars. Trust from employees can catalyze societal change. Employers can advocate for communities through their speech and actionsor by silence and inaction. Employers can rise to the moment by proactively keeping a monitoring finger on the pulse of the total health impact employees confront daily, from local concerns and world issues to public health priorities. Systemic racism, war, gun violence, death by suicide, overdoses, drug poisoning, economic uncertainty, COVID-19: These threats impact us all, whether directly or indirectly. To achieve the goal of widespread, whole-person health, employers must aim for transparency, set measurable goals to hold themselves accountable, continue to listen, and anticipate their employees' needs. It's critical to invest in resources and tools that are easy to navigate, customize, and adapt to the needs of a diverse and evolving workforce.
