May is Mental Health Month, and employee mental health is an important workforce consideration. According to the Partnership for Workplace Mental Health, 30 to 40 percent of us will experience some form of mental health concern in our lifetime. Most people can (and do) recover from mental illness with the right treatment and support. Employers can create proactive initiatives to combat lost productivity among employees who experience mental health issues. Last May, Clare Miller, Director of the Partnership for Workplace Mental Health, wrote a piece for EARN|Exchange blog on the importance of fostering mental health in the workplace. Read the full post and learn why “Employers Can’t Afford to Ignore Mental Health”  and view EARN’s archived webinar on this topic. For more information and employer resources, visit www.AskEARN.org.
