The Future of the Workplace
The pandemic has a long lasting impact on mental health globally; it has increased the demand for mental health. And, the future of the workplace seems to be in jeopardy. According to WHO `COVID-19 estimates reveal that nearly $1 trillion in economic productivity is lost annually from depression and anxiety alone. However, studies show that every $1 spent on evidence based care for depression and anxiety returns $5, and nearly three-quarters reported at least partial disruptions to school and workplace mental health services that is 78 percent & 75percent respectively.'
AI is changing the culture of work by improving employee experience. It provides solutions to remote workers as well. With the onset of 2020, things that used to be expected are no longer considered normal, whether in personal or professional life. A lot of things have changed in and around, even in the organizational culture. But, besides shutting down companies or employees losing jobs, the primary threat was on health and wellness. The only way ahead for companies is by leveraging health tech solutions for employees to cope in difficult times. Workplaces should not underestimate the fact that a company can move ahead only with a credential mindset and by strategically helping employees to be in their best form at work.
Bottom Line

The only holistic way out of this unhealthy lifestyle mess is by shifting to healthy habits and providing employees access to corporate wellness or employee wellness apps. This way, employees will also be able to look into the matters of financial health.
