In 2020, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/mmwr\/volumes\/69\/wr\/mm6932a1.htm?s_cid=mm6932a1_w\">CDC research<\/a> showed many Americans had reached a breaking point, with 41% of adults reporting struggles with mental health.

More employers have begun to prioritize mental health, not only because it\u2019s the right thing to do for employees, but also it\u2019s good for business. Mental health is an early indicator &#8212;\u00a0\u00a0 the canary in the coal mine, if you will &#8212; that all employers need to pay attention to in order to prevent putting their employees and businesses at risk. In fact, the National Alliance on Mental Health of Massachusetts found that employees with depression report on average <a href=\"https:\/\/namimass.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/BAD-FOR-BUSINESS.pdf\">5.6 hours per week of lost time<\/a>, representing a serious erosion of productive capacity, and Harvard Business Review found that workplace stress <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tlnt.com\/workplace-stress-the-silent-productivity-killer\/#:~:text=American%20businesses%20lose%20up%20to,day%20for%20stress%2Drelated%20reasons.\">costs U.S. companies $190 billion<\/a> every year.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As leaders, it\u2019s our responsibility to create environments that foster the productivity, performance and happiness of our employees. And as executive leaders, that means we can\u2019t settle for temporary fixes to help our workforces weather today\u2019s storms \u2014 we need to commit to proactive, preventative, long-term solutions to help them become healthier and more resilient.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As leaders, here is how we can help:<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Employee mental health support is table stakes<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I founded <a href=\"https:\/\/www.modernhealth.com\/\">Modern Health<\/a> in 2017 to destigmatize and increase access to mental health by empowering employers to lead the charge in acknowledging that mental health is just as important as physical health.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>One of the most common misconceptions is that our mind and body are separate. In my opinion, that\u2019s not correct! Our mental and physical health are inextricably linked, with studies showing that <a href=\"https:\/\/screening.mhanational.org\/content\/mental-illness-physical-or-mental\/\">one ailment can lead to another.<\/a> For example, people with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nimh.nih.gov\/health\/publications\/chronic-illness-mental-health\">depression are at higher risk for other medical conditions<\/a> like cardiovascular disease, diabetes and Alzheimer&#8217;s disease. The <a href=\"https:\/\/ontario.cmha.ca\/documents\/connection-between-mental-and-physical-health\/\">World Health Organization (WHO)<\/a> puts it perfectly by stating that \u201c<em>there is no health without mental health.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If leaders have not already taken steps to support the mental health of their employees, then they are probably already considering or looking for another job. With the demand for talent rising, employees are well positioned to look for more in their workplace. We <a href=\"https:\/\/join.modernhealth.com\/future-of-mental-health-2021-report-forrester.html\">conducted a study<\/a> that found that 64% of manager and non-manager employees rank a flexible and supportive culture over a higher salary and are prepared to change jobs to find it.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Find alternative ways to support employees<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>One of the biggest mental health challenges for those seeking help is access. There is a shortage of clinically trained therapists, despite a rising demand, so individuals looking for mental health support are relegated to putting themselves on long waiting lists to get help. Making matters even worse is the fact that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/why-its-so-hard-to-find-a-therapist-who-takes-insurance-11633442400\">many therapists don\u2019t accept insurance<\/a>, creating an additional financial barrier. This results in care being given to those who can afford it rather than those who have a clinical need leaving many to either pay high premiums, or even worse, neglect mental health support altogether.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>But they need to know there are other solutions out there, and we as leaders have the responsibility to make those resources available and accessible. For example, educate your employees about the different options of care available whether that\u2019s an Employee Assistance Program, publicly available resources, or a comprehensive mental health platform, like Modern Health. Unless they have an acute mental health condition, most people can benefit from alternative resources like mindfulness techniques,\u00a0 group sessions and coaching.\u00a0 Our mental health ebbs and flows over time and our needs and preferences will often change.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Lead by example<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As a leader, I try my best to lead with vulnerability and transparency. I want my employees to know that they are not the only ones dealing with the ebbs and flows of mental health conditions\u2013their CEO is too.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>At the beginning of the pandemic, we experienced a surge of interest as companies looked for different platforms to support their employee\u2019s mental wellbeing. It was an amazing moment of growth for us and an opportunity to help people at scale, but after a few weeks, I realized that in order to help others we had to prioritize our own health.\u00a0 I found myself staring at an email for hours struggling to finish it. I was burnt out and had been so focused on supporting those in need that I hadn\u2019t prioritized my own self care. If I was feeling that way, I knew all of my colleagues were too.\u00a0 It was at that point that I closed my laptop in the middle of the afternoon\u00a0 and went on a run to clear my head, something very out of character given a busy calendar. When I got to my computer, I immediately penned a note to our team sharing my feeling of burnout and reminded our entire team that we had to pace ourselves and take care of our own mental health first as this pandemic was going to be around for a while.\u00a0 I\u2019m not sure at that point I had even predicted just how long that would be!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I have always spoken about my mental health openly with employees to normalize the conversation, proudly blocking time in my calendar for coaching and therapy and encouraging others to do the same. It is not a weakness and we need more leaders to be authentic about our own struggles so our colleagues feel empowered to also proactively prioritize their mental health every single day and get the support they need.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The decisions we make today will impact the health of our employees and businesses for years to come. Rather than avoiding the canary in the coal mine, tackle it head on with the resources your employees need before it&#8217;s too late.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n  \r\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n<\/section>\n\n<style>\r\n    .btn:hover:after {\r\n        transform: scaleX(1.05);\r\n    }\r\n<\/style>\r\n<div class=\"people-spotlight text-person color_theme\" id=\"ra_id_1657220621\">\r\n    <div class=\"container\">\r\n        <div class=\"row\">           \r\n            \t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-lg-9\">\r\n                <div class=\"\">\r\n                                            <h3 tabindex=\"0\">About The Author<\/h3>\r\n                                            <div tabindex=\"0\" class = \"text_description\">Alyson Watson is the founder and CEO of Modern Health, the comprehensive mental health and wellness platform that combines the WHO well-being assessment, self-service wellness kits, a global network of certified coaches and licensed therapists, all available in a single app. Modern Health empowers employers to lead the charge in acknowledging that mental health is just as important as physical health, destigmatizing the conversation, and increasing accessibility of mental health services for all.\r\n<\/div>\r\n                        \r\n                                        <div class=\"btn-wrapper\">\r\n                                        <\/div>\r\n                <\/div>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n            <div class=\"col-lg-3\">\r\n                <div class=\"\">\r\n                                        <h4 tabindex=\"0\">  <\/h4>\r\n                                        <div class=\" ratio ratio-4x3 avtar-wraper\"><img decoding=\"async\" tabindex=\"0\" class=\"avtar lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/bostonchamber.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Text-Person-1.png\" alt=\"Alyson \" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 480px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 480\/330;\"><\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t                    <h5 tabindex=\"0\" class = \"first_last\">Alyson  Watson<\/h5>\r\n                    <p tabindex=\"0\" class=\"special-label position mb-0\">founder and CEO,<\/p>\r\n                    <p tabindex=\"0\" class=\"special-label company\">Modern Health<\/p>                   <div class=\"btn-wrapper\">\r\n                        <a class=\"btn secondary-cta btn-arrow\" href=\"mailto:press@modernhealth.com\" tabindex=\"0\"><span class=\"icon\"><\/span>Email Alyson <\/a>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t                    <\/div>\r\n                <\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n                                         \r\n        <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alyson Watson&#8217;s thoughts on Why mental health is a canary in the coal mine for companies&#8217; resilience<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":29191,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"content-type":"","inline_featured_image":false},"tags":[31,100],"class_list":["post-29182","thought-leadership","type-thought-leadership","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-professional-development","tag-thought-leadership"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
