Overview
When individuals are mentally healthy, they feel a greater sense of calm, increased self-esteem, increased happiness, improved mood, and reduced risk of developing mental health conditions such as anxiety and depression.
This is all linked to improved organisational outcomes such as increased employee commitment, productivity, and customer satisfaction.[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
