Among the workforce, mental health issues impact businesses in the following ways:

Sick leave

Directly related to diagnosed mental illness, including depression, anxiety, and stress disorders, which often necessitate professional treatment and recovery periods.

Sick leave

Related to unrecognised mental illness, especially undiagnosed mental health problems, manifesting as common ailments, psychosomatic illnesses, alcoholism, substance abuse, and more.

Poor job performance & lack of motivation

Mental health challenges frequently result in decreased productivity, with affected employees struggling to maintain focus, meet deadlines and deliver quality work, ultimately impacting their overall job performance and motivation levels.

Conflict with colleagues

Mental health issues can strain workplace relationships, leading to communication breakdowns, misunderstandings, and increased tension among team members, which disrupts collaboration and team dynamics.

Conflict with customers

Employee mental health struggles often affect customer interactions, resulting in degraded service quality, increased complaints, and potentially damaged business relationships that can harm the company's reputation and financial performance.

Crises & emergencies

In some cases, mental health issues escalate into workplace emergencies requiring immediate intervention, creating disruptions that demand swift response protocols and may temporarily halt normal business operations.
