Beating the blues: Supporting employees with their mental wellbeing in January

Great article and ideas. I have also noticed, as founder of a successful health and wellbeing business, that year end (some companies are December, and many are April) have a huge impact on mental health in January/May.

We see lots of fatigue as teams work hard to hit the targets the P&L need and then others become stressed as they experience rapid OD’s that have to be announced to save costs and make next year’s numbers look better. Every business has a year end and helping employees learn to pace themselves, switch off on a night and be resilient to the ever-increasing pace of business will be key to the UK and Irish economic and health improvements needed in future years.
