35% of employees surveyed said they are unproductive for an average of two hours during their shift everyday.

The 2021 survey revealed that presenteeism — the phenomenon where employees show up for work but don’t perform at full capacity — affects more than one-third of employees. This translates to productivity loss of an average of 10 hours a week.

“Mental health support in the workplace has already been an area of concern before the pandemic but with the COVID-19 crisis, the emotional challenges employees are confronting have spiked,” said Kana Takahashi, Chief Executive Officer of MindNation.

“Employees must deal with new working conditions — having to balance work responsibilities with home duties, isolation, and managing fears about the pandemic, financial insecurity.”

To address productivity issues and talent loss, business leaders must ensure that they are able to take care of their employees’ well-being. This can be done by creating a culture that recognizes and supports mental health.
