Tomorrow is World Mental Health Day. In the last few years, mental health awareness has been making its way into the consciousness of the nation. Slowly but surely, it has started appearing on the radar of the common man.
The World Health Organisation (WHO) has stated that theme for this year is 'Mental health in the workplace'. Its website states that 'Employers and managers who put in place workplace initiatives to promote mental health, and to support employees who have mental disorders, see gains not only in the health of their employees, but also in their productivity at work.' A negative working environment, on the other hand, may lead to health problems, abuse of alcohol or substances, and lost productivity.
