In any given year, one in every five Canadians will experience a mental health issue. That represents a huge proportion of your employees – and you may not even know it.
The costs of workforce mental health issues, whether through absenteeism, presenteeism or increased benefit costs, can be significant if employers don't take measures to mitigate the issue.
