HOW COVID WILL IMPACT YOUR BUSINESS
The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, has resulted in disruption to the fabric of society, our health service and economy. Individuals are facing a multitude of stressors including, serious illness, bereavement, social distancing, financial insecurity, returning to the workplace and ‘normal living’. It has also deeply impacted the nation's psychological health. Recent Mental Health statistics report that:
Every 1 in 6 people are currently showing signs of mental-health.(The Health Foundation)
Our ability to cope with stress decreased from 73% in March ’20 to 65% in February ’21(The Health Foundation)
Reports of loneliness have increased from 10% in March ’20 to 26% in February ’21(The Health Foundation)
There has been a 70% increase in anxiety. (The Health Foundation)
WE HELP FACILITATE CHANGE
Many organisations have offered excellent in-house training, de-stigmatising mental health and supporting employees in the workplace. This is important, however focusing on top line symptoms and issues will only offer short term relief. The Systems approach we have designed equips individuals with a core understanding, enabling them to reduce stress, regulate emotions, problem solve and increase the quality of decision making.
REAL IMPACT ON INDIVIDUALS
The impact to an organisation will be, individuals will have more difficulty in communicating, being creative, making decisions, presenteeism - showing up for work without being productive, and generally having a persecution mindset where conflicts and dissatisfaction creeps in. This has a domino effect as stress is contagious.
