Mental Wellbeing And Stress Management With ekincare

Mental Wellbeing And Stress Management With ekincare

Stress is one common issue faced by almost every employee.

Nearly half of the employees in India suffer from some kind of stress, according to the findings of the latest survey by Optum.

Another survey, conducted by 1to1help.net, showed that the proportion of workers at high risk of suicide due to unmanaged stress has grown to 8% of all counseling cases in 2018 from 2–4% two years ago.

“Workplaces that promote mental health and support people with mental disorders are more likely to reduce absenteeism, increased productivity, and economic gains” WHO said.

Organizations are now working towards creating a policy for stress management and work-life balance to help their employees.

ekincare has introduced a service to help all the corporate employees deal with stress and mental wellbeing in partnership with SilverOak.
