What is a mentally healthy workplace?

A mentally healthy workplace is an environment that actively protects, promotes, and responds to the mental health of its employees by creating a supportive culture, managing risks, and providing resources. This includes fostering open communication, eliminating stigma and discrimination, offering flexible work arrangements, and supporting work-life balance.

Such workplaces benefit the business through increased productivity, higher job satisfaction, and reduced absenteeism, and are the responsibility of everyone, from leadership to individual employees.
