Course Overview
The demanding nature of work can take a toll on employees’ physical and mental health, impacting their productivity and overall well-being.
Organisations are beginning to acknowledge that the mental health of their employees is as crucial as their physical health. Changes in our moods, emotions, and stress levels can dramatically affect our ability to achieve employment goals and be productive.
Wellness goes beyond physical health and encompasses mental, emotional, and social well-being. Employers are recognizing the importance of fostering a holistic approach to wellness. Prioritizing wellness leads to happier, more productive employees and a positive corporate culture, ultimately benefiting individuals and the organization.
Related to these issues is the problem of stigma. Most often discussions surrounding mental health in the workplace are shrouded with stigma, hindering individuals from seeking necessary support and accommodations.
