Why this matters

Workplace mental health is not just about offering a hotline and hoping for the best. It is shaped by leadership behavior, culture, communication, workload, and whether employees actually feel safe asking for help.

Strong scores can highlight where your organization is doing well. Lower scores can reveal practical opportunities to strengthen support, improve retention, reduce burnout risk, and build a healthier workplace.
