 Conference Overview
To compete domestically and globally,
organizations must protect and fully engage their employees. As
workplace disability costs and absenteeism increase due to mental
ill-health, more and more employers are developing comprehensive
policies and processes to manage the challenges and mitigate their
impact.
Mental health is the largest untreated
epidemic facing Canadian workers.
Experts estimate that one in four employees
suffers from mental health challenges, at a cost of $30 billion a year
to Canadian employers. Mental health and well-being is an economic,
social responsibility, labour shortage, and health care issue.
“…7.5 million Canadians – each year, every year
– actually suffer depression, anxiety, substance abuse or another
mental disorder.”—The Global Business and Economic Round Table of
Addiction and Mental Health
Employers must redefine mental health in their
workplace culture to prevent, support and maximize their ultimate
productivity edge – a healthy, engaged, and motivated workforce.
“…50%-98% of the costs of depression treatment
alone could be offset by resulting gains in productivity…”—Dr. Ron
Kessler, Harvard Medical School.
