CRISIS RESPONSE: A Pathway to Proactive Mental Health

If it wasn’t clear already, the publicity around World Mental Health Day 2021 brought home the point—Covid-19 has increased the awareness and recognition of mental health. Up until early 2020, most organizational leaders focused on the impact on mental health in terms of employee productivity, health costs, engagement, customer service and other correlates. Today, they are focused on mental health on its own—stress, depression, anxiety, and work/family issues that the pandemic has amplified. This recognition is a good thing and means better care and funding of well-being and behavioral health services. However, by no means has the stigma surrounding mental health gone away.

Techno-Leaps in EAP & Wellness

The field of workplace-based employee support has evolved over the past 50 years. However, none of the evolution has occurred with such speed as the industry has experienced in the past 12 months.

I am delighted to relate a new consulting relationship with InfoTech to help introduce their multi-language Wellness Checkpoint® tool. The latest Journey mobile app engages users with a brief (14-question) initial quiz and establishes a Well-being Age, and helps organizations understand their employees and insureds better with data insights. The tool provides a great complement to any wellness strategy, documenting change and improvement, and I’m most enthusiastic about the partnership.
