Mental health is an important factor for well-being and productivity in the workplace. But unfortunately, addressing the mental health of employees is not always a priority for managers. It is important that managers are aware of how they can support and promote employees' mental health so that they can thrive in their working life.

Management must take the lead to ensure well-being

To create a work culture where employees thrive, it is important that management takes the lead. Managers need to set a good example by being open and honest about their own mental health and by supporting employees to take responsibility for their own mental health. Managers should also ensure that sufficient resources are available, such as professional help and stress management training, to help employees tackle their mental health challenges.

Another important factor for well-being is collegial cooperation and social engagement. When employees have a good relationship with their colleagues, they feel more connected to the workplace and are more likely to thrive. The company can create opportunities for social engagement, such as joint events or team-building activities.

Employee well-being is a manager's success

A manager's success depends to a large extent on the well-being of their employees. When employees thrive, they are more productive, motivated and engaged in their work. Therefore, it is important that managers take responsibility for creating a work culture that promotes mental health and well-being.
