This date reminds us of the importance of taking care of our mental health, which is one of the <a href=\"https:\/\/edenred.pt\/en\/news\/human-resources\/4-pillars-of-employee-well-being\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">pillars that support our well-being<\/a> in general. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this context, organizations have a fundamental role that cannot be ignored. It&#8217;s not just a question of social responsibility, but something that should be intrinsic to the organizational culture itself: looking at the health and well-being of employees as a <strong>central concern in company strategy<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.who.int\/news-room\/fact-sheets\/detail\/mental-health-at-work\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">World Health Organization<\/a>, employers must act on four fronts:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Preventing occupational risks that could affect employees&#8217; mental health;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Protecting and promoting psychological well-being at work;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Support employees with mental health conditions, ensuring their inclusion, involvement and growth;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Create environments conducive to change.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>These recommendations are not just good practices, but requirements in a labour market that recognizes that sustainable performance and organizational success obviously depend on the integral health of its people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Discover with us five concrete measures that companies can implement to support the mental health of their employees, with a real impact on their satisfaction, motivation and involvement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ways to support employees&#8217; mental health<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1 &#8211; Ensure access to mental health resources and care<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Several studies have shown that proper treatment of conditions such as anxiety or depression results in significant improvements in people&#8217;s quality of life and, consequently, in their professional performance and productivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, many people face barriers &#8211; financial, logistical or cultural &#8211; in accessing this type of support and healthcare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As such, companies must ensure that, on the one hand, they provide health benefits and, on the other, that these include <strong>adequate coverage for mental health care<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to insurance and health plans, benefits such as <a href=\"https:\/\/edenred.pt\/en\/benefits\/edenred-flexivel\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Edenred Flex\u00edvel<\/a> can be an important tool in supporting employees&#8217; health and well-being. This extra salary benefit can be used in various hospitals and clinics throughout the country. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In parallel, companies can implement measures such as signing protocols with clinics and therapists or providing digital platforms, psychological support programs or anonymous helplines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2 &#8211; Leadership training<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Leaders have a direct impact on the well-being of their employees. They set the tone for the organizational culture and, because they deal directly with people, they are in a position to <strong>detect any warning signs<\/strong> and act as facilitators in accessing the necessary support. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Active listening, empathy and emotional intelligence are some of the <a href=\"https:\/\/edenred.pt\/en\/news\/human-resources\/9-characteristics-that-distinguish-good-leadership\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">skills that distinguish good leadership<\/a> and are crucial to creating healthier working environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Organizations must ensure that professionals in leadership and people management positions have the conditions to develop these and other skills. In particular, <strong>leaders should be made aware of the importance of<\/strong>: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Recognize signs of exhaustion or <a href=\"https:\/\/edenred.pt\/en\/news\/health\/world-mental-health-day-how-to-recognize-burnout\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">burnout<\/a>;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Promote an environment of trust and security;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Refer employees to the appropriate resources;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Set an example by also taking care of your own mental health.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3 &#8211; Promoting a balance between professional, personal and family life<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The &#8220;always on&#8221; culture has a proven negative impact on workers&#8217; mental health. The absence of clear boundaries between work and personal life, or difficulties in reconciling these two spheres, can lead to high levels of <a href=\"https:\/\/edenred.pt\/en\/news\/work\/how-to-manage-stress-at-work-8-practical-tips\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">stress<\/a>, chronic fatigue and demotivation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To counteract this trend, companies should adopt policies that promote <a href=\"https:\/\/edenred.pt\/en\/news\/work\/work-life-balance-balance-between-personal-and-professional-life\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">work-life balance<\/a> such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Flexible working hours;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Possibility of remote or hybrid working arrangements;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Encouraging lunch breaks and regular breaks;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Respect for rest time, avoiding contact outside working hours or during vacations;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Discouraging a culture of overwork (the so-called <a href=\"https:\/\/visao.pt\/opiniao\/apressadamente\/2024-10-08-o-preco-do-sucesso-a-cultura-do-hustle-e-a-saude-mental\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">&#8220;hustle&#8221; culture)<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>These practices enhance employee well-being, contributing to talent retention and a <strong>more positive and sustainable organizational culture<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4 &#8211; Listening to employees and acting on feedback<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When employees feel that their voice is heard &#8211; and that their suggestions and opinions are taken into account &#8211; it increases their involvement, trust and sense of belonging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Companies should create <strong>regular and accessible channels for collecting feedback<\/strong>, such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Anonymous organizational climate surveys (eNPS);<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Suggestion box;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Open meetings and sessions with different teams.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>These tools allow companies to identify stress factors, toxic work environments, barriers to work-life balance, among other aspects that require intervention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But listening is not enough: action is essential.
