In the first year of the pandemic, the global prevalence of anxiety and depression increased by a massive 25%. And employers with workers who are experiencing mental health issues spend more than $5,500 on average in turnover costs per year per employee. In addition, according to a late 2021 Gallup Survey; 85% of employees are experiencing a level of disengagement at their workplaces, and 73% are actively looking for new employment. The Great Resignation for many has become The Great Realization.
