A recent WHO-led study estimates that US $1 trillion in productivity is lost each year due to mental health issues in the workplace. Another statistic is that disengaged employees cost the economy $550 billion annually. The numbers are staggering.
In areas outside of the workplace, mental health issues continue to grow at unprecedented rates. From college campuses to retirement communities, well-being is at risk as we continue to live in uncertain times.
