A new report published today highlights that more than 13m working days a year are lost because of work-related stress, anxiety and depression, and The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) estimates the cost of work-related mental illness to be £28bn – a quarter of the UK’s total sick bill.
NICE suggests that for the average firm of 1,000 staff, £250,000 a year could be saved if stress reduction measures were introduced.
