Prioritising psychological safety

The workforce is suffering from a rise in mental distress from the pandemic. There is a risk that returning to the workplace will cause millions of people to encounter stress and anxiety.

A new McKinsey survey found that a third of respondents did not want to return back to an office setting as it would negatively affect their mental health. 

Employers who prioritise psychological safety in post-pandemic operations can help employees' mental health and attempts to cultivate inclusive workplaces.
