\"\"Employees from companies in Sofia and Bulgaria from all economic sectors are invited to join the anonymous survey “Emotional and mental health at work.”<\/span><\/p>\n

The purpose of the questionnaire is to examine what factors interfere with the work process, how they affect mental health, wellbeing and efficiency in the workplace and how companies support employees and teams as part of their policies to ensure a productive work process.<\/span><\/p>\n

Experts from all Bulgarian companies and organizations are invited to share their personal experience and observations in <\/b>the survey here<\/b><\/a>.<\/b><\/p>\n

The questionnaire does not require personal data and takes no more than 10 minutes.<\/span><\/p>\n

The survey was developed with the assistance of HR, communications and market research experts and was initiated by the team of hOUR THERAPY – psychologists and psychotherapists who provide personal consultations as part of the social benefits to employees in companies in tech, manufacturing and other sectors.<\/span><\/p>\n

A Report with summary and data analysis to be prepared in December. We will share the results, so stay tuned.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why the topic is important<\/b><\/p>\n

At the end of 2018 (long before the pandemic became part of our daily lives), the World Health Organization (WHO) established in its 11th revision of the International Classification of Diseases ICD-11 a whole subsection on issues related to the workplace and the work environment. This came shortly after the organization released data from a global study showing that nearly 264 million people suffer from depression, many of whom also have symptoms of anxiety, and <\/span>this costs companies about $ 1 trillion in lost productivity each year.<\/b> WHO classified workplace burnout as an occupational phenomenon and the phenomenon is expected to be part of the updated WHO ICD-11 classification, that will come into effect on 1 January 2022<\/span><\/p>\n

The pandemic has increased interest and placed an even greater focus on the topic of workplace wellbeing. <\/b>With blurring boundaries between personal and working time and space, the constant reorganization of the work process, the need for rapid adaptation to technology, the uncertain future and more, all led to a deterioration in the mental health of employees. And, in fact, there are young people whose first appointment took place in a completely remote mode. These are 24-25-year-olds (upper age of Generation Z), whose onboarding and first steps in a working relationship happened remotely. The European Commission, the American Psychological Association, the international Workplace Mental Health Institute, and many other related organizations have consistently published reports on the effects of stress in recent months, and the Financial Times has launched three new FT Series on the subject: <\/span>Burnout<\/span><\/i>, <\/span>Workplace Health<\/span><\/i> and <\/span>Workplace Mental Health<\/span><\/i>. Emotional health and wellbeing at work became the new priority of the companies.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What’s ahead<\/b><\/p>\n

Every company depends on having healthy and productive employees. An appreciated and happy team is much more likely to provide the best results for the business. The world is beginning to recover and new challenges and worries are emerging. What is the future of the work environment and culture? How to deal with fatigue, fears and the need for flexibility and freedom at work? What is the new definition of happiness and wellbeing in the workplace? What will a sustainable workplace look like in the future?<\/span><\/p>\n
