The Other Side of Workplace Mental Health

What happens at home does not necessarily stay at home. Family conflicts, financial difficulties, grief, and health problems can make it hard for employees to focus, hurting productivity and morale. Workers may take more time off to handle personal matters or may come to work mentally distracted and unproductive. Their distraction also puts the worker, and those around them, at increased risk. Additionally, chronic stress can lead to anxiety, depression, and other health issues, which may result in long-term absences.

In this session, explore the connections between personal stressors and work performance. Take away new strategies for supporting employees, mitigating the risk, and creating a more resilient team and culture.
