HR Happy Hour 484 - Addressing Mental Health in the Workplace

Hosts: Steve Boese, Trish McFarlane

Guest: Lindsay Mastrogiovanni, HR Coach at Paychex

This episode of the HR Happy Hour is sponsored by Paychex, one of the leading providers of HR, payroll, retirement, and insurance solutions for businesses of all sizes. More than half of business owners with 10-500 employees say the availability of the COVID-19 vaccine is causing them to start, or start planning, their return to the workplace. If you’re thinking about instituting a vaccination policy, download Paychex’s latest e-book, “Managing COVID-19 Vaccinations and the Return to Work,” to learn about key considerations for developing your policy, as well as important health and safety measures for establishing a safe and productive return to work. Go to payx.me/ebook-vaccines to download your copy of the e-book, today. 

This week we were joined by Lindsay Mastrogiovanni from Paychex to talk about May - Mental Health Awareness Month and the latest results from a recent Paychex survey surrounding a huge gap between what employers perceive is going on with their people versus what is actually going on with mental health in the workplace.  We talked about the importance of opening up dialogue and having those tough conversations surrounding mental health.  We also discussed ways to find resources that can help and how employers will have to make adjustments as the workplace changes and evolves post-COVID.  In closing, we talked about ways HR leaders can find help if they are finding adjustment difficult.
