At NYSIF, it’s always been our mission to help workers achieve the best possible health outcomes. And with our State of Wellness program, we’re doing it in a whole new way – by providing employers and employees with engaging resources on a wide range of wellness topics.
We’re kicking things off with one of the most important topics of all – mental health. And with 86% of workers saying they’ve experienced at least one mental health challenge over the past year,* there’s never been a better time to get the conversation started. Explore an array of helpful tools below, from tips for increasing awareness to more in-depth support.
EMPLOYER RESOURCES
Explore ways you can promote mental health awareness at your company, speak to employees about prioritizing their own mental health and ensure that your employees have access to the support they need.
Create a Mental Health Awareness Program
Dedicating time to mental health shows employees that you care, and brings people together in support of a healthier, happier work environment. We can help you create a program that raises your team’s awareness of important mental health topics and encourages deeper conversation.
GET STARTED: Check out our Action Plan below for easy-to-implement ideas that can help get your program started. We’ve included posters that can be hung in your workplace, as well as images and graphics that can be used on television displays and lobby monitors or as screensavers.
