We all know that the pandemic has had an effect on people’s mental health throughout 2020/21, but no-one was prepared for just how huge the impact would be.
The chances are that a large proportion of your workforce have experienced a deterioration in their mental health which is affecting their work as well as their personal lives.
Acknowledging and responding to this challenge is vital for organisations, and with a greater focus being placed on employee wellbeing throughout this difficult time, it is essential to keep up the momentum and commit to long-term strategies and support.
