TELUS Mental Health Index: Workers who are dissatisfied with their physical health have a productivity loss of over 77 days per year

"There is a clear link between physical activity, employer support and employee wellbeing. At TELUS Health, we've seen that those employees whose physical health and wellbeing is supported by their employer have better mental health and higher productivity - outcomes for which every business owner strives" said Paula Allen, Global Leader, Research & Client Insights, TELUS Health. "This underscores the need for organizations to prioritize wellbeing as a strategic pillar of business success. By integrating robust support systems like Employee Assistance Programs (EAPs) and physical health and wellbeing programs into workplace culture, companies can create a more resilient, engaged and productive workforce."

The TELUS Mental Health Index is based on a response scoring system that turns individual responses into point values. Higher point values are associated with better mental health and less mental health risk. Scores between 0 to 49 correspond with distress levels, scores between 50 to 79 correspond with strain levels and scores between 80 to 100 correspond with optimal levels of mental health.

This TELUS Mental Health Index also includes insights related to diet and experience with the healthcare system. As a company rooted in social purpose, TELUS Health is committed to improving health outcomes and sharing valuable insights. Read the full European TELUS Mental Health Index here .
