There's never been a better time to consider mental health and how it
affects your business.
Business owners and managers, and the self-employed, take heed: 21% of
U.S. adults experienced mental illness in 2020 (52.9 million people).
This represents 1 in 5 adults. 5.6% of U.S. adults experienced serious
mental illness in 2020 (14.2 million people). This represents 1 in 20
adults. With these numbers, the workforce cannot help but be impacted.
This large number of people needs support and without it, their health
and your business will suffer. Historically, we haven't spoken about
mental health, wellness, or even neurodivergency in public, but it's
time to drop the shame and instead, get ahead of it and offer support
and resources. This book will help equip employers, employees, and the
self-employed with information, tools, and resources to be proactive and
deal with issues before, during, and after their appearance. The current
global climate drives home the need to create a supportive environment
where everyone can do their jobs to the best of their abilities. This
author has a wealth of experience providing Indigenous people and other
individuals with assistance. There's never been a better time to
consider mental health and how it affects your business.
