WORKPLACE
Research shows that 1 in 5 employees suffer from a mental health condition. Every year, untreated mental health conditions cost Australian employers $10.9 billion in absenteeism, presenteeism (reduced productivity) and compensation claims. In fact, statistics suggest that 6 months following a mental health compensation claim only 54% of people have returned to work and by 2 years, only 38% have returned to work. The good news is that it has been estimated that employers will receive an average return of $2.30 for every $1 spent on creating a mentally healthy workplace. Creating a safe and mentally healthy workplace helps workers thrive, increases productivity, decreases absenteeism, reduces turnover and recruitment costs, decreases workers' compensation claims and increases both engagement and job satisfaction.
