Background
Many adults experience mental health problems each year, yet we are concerned that workplaces often lack understanding. Employees can stay silent because they fear stigma, judgment or losing their jobs. This leaves countless people suffering in silence. Mandatory, meaningful training could help create safer, more supportive and informed workplaces for everyone.
