A new study by MPower, mental health care initiative has revealed startling challenges faced by corporate employees in major metropolitan cities of India.
The survey commissioned market research firm IPSOS to gather responses from 3,000 employees across 10 sectors and eight Indian cities, including Mumbai, Kolkata, Delhi, Chennai, Ahmedabad, Hyderabad, Pune, and Bengaluru. Called ‘Mental Health and Wellness Quotient @Workplace 2023’, the survey by the initiative, an effort of The Aditya Birla Education Trust, uncovered alarming statistics.
Nearly half or 48 per cent of corporate employees surveyed are struggling with mental health issues with female corporate employees being more prone to high mental health risk at 56 per cent v/s that of men at 41 per cent. What`s more, the age group between 35 to 45, known for their productivity, is at a higher risk of suffering from these issues, which can have a significant impact on employee productivity—approximately 50 per cent of these employees strongly agree that stress impacts their work productivity—and pose a challenge to the country’s overall economic growth due increased absenteeism and reduced productivity.
