Mental-health issues result in a $1 trillion hit to the global economy because of lost productivity, according to the World Health Organization.
Gymnast Simone Biles’s decision not to compete in key Olympics events may be reflective of the intense pressure that high-profile athletes endure and what it means to their mental health.
They see the Biles situation as one example of the toll that depression, anxiety and other disorders take on our ability to function in the workplace. In the U.S., the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says that depression results in 200 million lost workdays annually, which cost employers anywhere from $17 billion to $44 billion.Professionals in the field say the issue has only gotten worse during the COVID-19 era, as employees deal with the challenges and social isolation of working from home.
