According to ADP Research Institute's new People at Work report, 57% believe their superiors are not prepared to talk about mental health issues without judgment<\/i><\/p>\n

Stress and mental health remain very persistent issues in the workplace. According to the report People at Work 2023: A Global Workforce View, by the ADP Research Institute, 67% of workers in Brazil say that their work is influenced by stress and 31% by mental health. On the global average, 65% of people say that their work is negatively affected mainly by stress, while 47% by mental health.<\/p>\n

The number of workers in the world who feel supported by their managers regarding their mental health fell from 70% in 2022 to 64% this year. Still, 57% believe that their superiors are not prepared to talk about mental health issues without judgment.<\/p>\n

Employees also report that companies are less flexible than last year when it comes to wellness policies, special counseling services, or self-care breaks. However, team-building activities and assistance programs are gaining prominence as initiatives to promote employee mental health.<\/p>\n

\"\"\u201cWith the loneliness of isolation during the pandemic, many workers have felt stressed at home. As a result, mental health was affected and many are still dealing with the effects of this period. Therefore, it is extremely necessary for companies to promote a welcoming work culture, in addition to educating and training managers to deal with these situations. When people feel safe and supported, productivity improves, as absences due to psychological health problems are less frequent and there is better time management at work\u201d, highlights Claudio Maggieri,\u00a0general manager<\/em>\u00a0for Latin America at ADP.<\/p>\n

Inclusive work environment promotes well-being<\/strong><\/p>\n

Another point that workers report is that companies continue to make progress in developing diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives. About 20% of them believe that promoting an inclusive work culture is a key part of their employers' support for positive mental health at work.<\/p>\n
