Mental health support has become an essential part of the HR function and with hot desks, remote working and online meetings more prevalent, it’s even more difficult to monitor the health and wellbeing of your staff and contractors. The pandemic has necessitated new ways of working, including working from home, furlough, reduced hours and the risk of redundancy so the working population’s mental health is under considerable strain.
It’s estimated that 1 in 4 will suffer mental health issues at some point in their lives; that’s potentially 25% of your workforce, so it’s important to provide access to behavioural health support as part of your company health benefits. One way to make such provision in an affordable, scalable way is with a digital mental health service such as Mynurva.
