Only one in 10 employees would be honest about needing a mental health day, with more than a third experiencing significant mental ill health, according to research.
New figures from leading mental health app Wysa show that the UK mental health crisis is worse than estimated among working people. More than one in three (35%) working people suffer moderate to severe depression or severe anxiety – three times higher than the estimated UK adult prevalence. Official figures point to one in six of us struggling with mental health, up from one in 10 prior to the coronavirus pandemic.
