#worldmentalhealthday has been a significant event since its launch in 1992. The day aims to raise awareness, promote mental health, and encourage support for mental ill-health worldwide. It’s an especially significant day for Mind & Mission as on this day 6 years ago we launched! Over the years, it has grown in relevance as mental health became a key societal concern. In 2024, the theme is "Prioritising Mental Health in the Workplace,” something that has always been a key focus at Mind & Mission. The primary goal of World Mental Health Day is to break the stigma surrounding mental health. Mental illness affects millions of people globally, yet it remains a topic that is often under-prioritised in the workplace. Observing this day provides an opportunity to encourage dialogue and education and it offers a platform for advocating for better mental health policies and resources. It also allows people to unite across countries, cultures, and backgrounds to emphasise that mental health decline can affect any one of us. The 2024 theme of workplace mental health is especially timely. Excessive workloads, lack of support, and toxic cultures lead to unhealthy work environments. The Health and Safety Executive’s latest figures suggest over 17 million working days are lost due to work-related stress anxiety or depression. Much research now shows that employers who prioritise investment in wellbeing not only see significant returns on investment but are contributing to Environmental and Social Governance. That is in addition to the moral responsibility of course. It’s increasingly important to recognise that it is not the sole responsibility of an employer to ensure an individual remains mentally healthy; something that occasionally gets lost in translation. As work-related mental health problems now account for half of the total work-related absence (including workplace injury) employers are being called upon to take more proactive steps to tackle unhealthy work environments. One of the key issues remaining is the safety to disclose mental health concerns to management or to raise issues regarding unhealthy practices, for example the expectation to work while on holiday. When employees feel safe to raise concerns without fear of negative repercussions, they are more likely to seek help. In our opinion this remains the critical obstacle to reducing the number of days absence from its highest point since records began. Flexible work arrangements have gained prominence, particularly in the wake of the pandemic, which have arguably provided opportunities for companies to reduce stress and improve work-life balance. World Mental Health Day is another timely reminder and opportunity for employers to reflect on how they can create cultures that value and support mental well-being.
