Nearly one in eight mothers experience postpartum depression (PPD) after welcoming a new child1, and around 50% of men who have partners diagnosed with PPD end up developing depression themselves.2 These challenges can make recovery and returning to work especially difficult.

As a result, 30% of employers have reported an increase in postpartum depression claims over the past two years.3 With proper treatment and support, most individuals can fully recover — yet many organizations are not fully equipped to help workers navigate this journey.

Join us as we share practical, actionable insights for employers, including:

  • How to recognize signs of postpartum depression in employees.

  • Benefits and resources that can promote recovery and resilience — and how to help connect employees to these tools.

  • Strategies for creating a supportive, stigma-free workplace culture.

Speaker
