It affects 1 in 5 people of the workforce….. And 50% of business owners….. It carries with it a stigma that has kept it in the dark and away from open discussions for years…. Evading the light, but growing in darkness and crippling those that suffer from it and those who love them. What is it? It’s mental health conditions – with the leading condition being DEPRESSION! With such a widespread affect on the workforce and society at large, it is important to address mental health and mental wellness – bringing it to the forefront. How is mental health defined? How can organizations develop a mental wellness culture that encourages and supports those affected by mental health conditions? What should employers and employees know about mental health? Join me and my special guest, Leslie Garcia, LCSW, Founder of Counseling Space as we discuss this and much more in this month’s episode of HR In The Dark.
