4 workplace mental wellness essentials
A benefit strategy that supports mental wellness needs these four components. How many do your current offerings cover?
A modern approach to workforce mental wellness
Employees need mental well-being support, for themselves and their families. Traditional approaches to care are falling short, and workers want their employers to offer more. But what should "more" look like for your organization?
Here's how to decide: First, evaluate your current workplace mental wellness efforts. Then, make a plan that opens more doors to personalized, proactive care.
On-demand resources
Employees deserve readily accessible help when they simply need to refocus, or cope with anxiety, stress, and/or burnout. And that help should be available to them 24/7, whether they're at their desk, or on the go.
A broad, diverse network
Access to mental health professionals that can address each employee’s personal needs in a timely manner is paramount.
Accountability for outcomes
The employer should receive regular, secure reporting on utilization, trends, and progress, demonstrating impact on overall workforce mental wellness and return on investment, while protecting the privacy of employees.
Synergy with other employee benefits
Integrate seamlessly with other benefit offerings, so mental health support becomes innate when other types of health claims are submitted.
Mental wellness + oral health
Mental health conditions can signal oral health issues, and vice versa. Offering a mental wellness solution as well as dental insurance supports this connection, by helping employees and their families address potential problems for better outcomes in work and life.
Mental wellness + disability
Disabilities can be visible, or unseen; temporary, or permanent; new, or present since birth. Each type presents challenges that can weigh heavily on emotional health. A dedicated mental wellness solution can provide the personalized care employees need to cope and thrive.
