HRUnpacked Episode 15 - Men's mental health & how the workplace can help with Hannah Bermudez
Welcome to this podcast where we will be discussing the topic of Men's mental health which has become an increasingly important public health issue, with significant implications for individuals, families, and society at large. Mental health statistics show that over a third of men (35%) think they've had a diagnosable mental health condition at some point in their life.
According to research by The Priory organisation:
• 77% of men polled have suffered with symptoms of common mental health conditions such as anxiety, stress or depression
• 40% of men have never spoken to anyone about their mental health
• 29% of those say they are "too embarrassed" to speak about it, while 20% say there is a "negative stigma" on the issue
• The biggest cause of mental health issues in men’s lives are work (32%), their finances (31%) and their health (23%)
• 40% of men polled said it would take thoughts of suicide or self-harm to compel them to get professional help
