More than 70% of those who require care don’t receive it, despite the fact that almost 1 billion people worldwide suffer from mental health disorders.

According to WHO, 15% of working-age persons have a mental condition. Without adequate assistance, mental illnesses and other mental health issues can have an impact on a person’s ability to work successfully, ability to manage absences, and ease of retaining or obtaining employment.

Depression and anxiety alone cost the world 12 billion working days annually. Furthermore, despite the fact that employment is crucial for healing, those with serious mental illnesses are frequently barred from it. Families, caregivers, coworkers, communities, and society at large can all be impacted by mental health issues. Each year, depression and anxiety cost the global economy $1 trillion in lost productivity.

Businesses have also realized that supporting employees’ mental health and wellness may cut expenses overall and boost morale. Employees want greater mental health benefits as well, a good percentage of them want assistance with stress, burnout, and other mental health problems.
