Mental health: It is increasingly burdened – and yet a prerequisite for a successful organisation

Reachable at all times, available everywhere and constant changes – the stress in everyday work is increasing. Especially mental stress. Today, every second person has mental health problems that require treatment at some point in their lives. The consequences range from a drop in performance to long-term absences. A return to work is often very difficult.

 

This makes it all the more important to take measures at an early stage

  • Increase the resilience of your employees
  • Reduce absenteeism and productivity losses
  • Strengthen a values-based, empowered work culture
