Abstract

Since 2015, Mental Health America (MHA) has collected and analyzed nearly 75,000 work health surveys to publish seven research reports. What we have learned from employees’ direct experiences in the workplace informs our best practices that guide hundreds of employers in their workplace wellness efforts. In this Mind the Workplace 2024 Report, MHA explores how business leaders can integrate a workplace wellness mindset into their organization’s infrastructure and culture. When employers implement healthy workplace practices, employees report more positive experiences of belonging, psychological safety, and empowerment in their workplace. These factors contribute to an employee’s ability to successfully manage their work stress and maintain their mental health and well-being. MHA’s 2024 Work Health Survey, available on the MHA Screening Program website from April 15 to July 9, 2024, collected responses from 3,915 employees across 21 industries in the U.S. who shared their experiences of trust, appreciation, psychological safety, and support at work and its impact on their well-being. MHA also collected optional demographic data to understand how a multi-generational workforce and different work environments impact employees’ well-being and support needs. The methodology, including how respondents’ scores determined a workplace’s health and how the generations are defined, can be found in Appendix A. The 2024 findings reinforce nearly a decade of our research that, regardless of industry, workplace cultures built on trust and support lead the way in achieving positive employee health outcomes for all employees. We encourage you to review this year’s findings with an eye on how to identify the needs of your specific worker population and how this essential feedback could inform worker well-being priorities and initiatives in your organization moving
