IHS COVID-19 Response Programming
IHS has created COVID-19 response programming to help employers like you provide the most support to staff during these incredibly stressful times. The Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) released a report to delve further into how employees are coping, based on data collected in April 2020 from over 1,000 US employees. The results show employees struggling with depression and exhaustion, while failing to take care of themselves well.
-
Nearly 1 in 4 employees feel depressed
-
Over 40% are dealing with exhaustion
-
More than one in five have trouble concentrating
-
Over a third have a lack of energy
-
Only 7% have reached out to a mental health professional
-
Over 40% struggle with their work-family balance
As you know, resources such as mindfulness and meditation tools, tips for stress relief, and regular body-centered practices can help staff build these lifelines into their workday.
