A gestão da saúde mental no ambiente de trabalho relacionado com o desempenho dos funcionários

Abstract

The management of mental health in the workplace is a topic of increasing importance, given its direct influence on employee performance. The existing literature suggests that a healthy and inclusive work environment can promote employee mental health and, consequently, improve productivity and overall performance. Studies indicate that stress at work, lack of support from colleagues and superiors, and lack of work-life balance are all factors that can negatively affect employees’ mental health. On the other hand, a positive work environment that promotes mental health can lead to an increase in job satisfaction, motivation, and employee productivity. The literature also highlights the importance of effective management strategies to promote mental health in the workplace. This includes implementing workplace wellness policies, employee assistance programs, mental health trainings, and fostering an inclusive and supportive work environment. In summary, effective mental health management in the workplace is crucial for employee performance. Organizations must therefore invest in effective mental health management strategies to promote employee wellbeing and, in turn, improve organizational performance.
