Mental health and addiction are personal issues. But they’re also personnel issues. Facing isolation, stress and uncertainty, many individuals in the workforce are at increased risk of elevated adverse mental health symptoms, such as anxiety and depression.

These behaviors directly affect the workplace, with employers seeing an increase in healthcare costs associated with mental health and substance use disorders as well as workplace challenges such as employee safety, lower levels of productivity and increased absenteeism.
