Telus Health released its monthly mental health index.

 

This month’s report says workers in Canada see a correlation between employer support of physical health issues and positive mental health.

 

Paula Allen with the organization says employer support ranges from helping people with challenges, communication, and flexible time to encouraging physical activity.

 

 

 

 

Allen went on to say the majority of people’s physical goals involve body image and weight loss, rarely aligning physical and mental health needs, and that needs to be addressed.

Nearly 9 in 10 workers in Canada believe physical activity and good mental health are linked.
