What is World Mental Health Day?

World Mental Health Day 2024

World Mental Health Day is an annual event run by the World Federation for Mental Health (WFMH). Its objective is to raise awareness of mental health problems across the world and to also examine how mental health care can be mobilised and made more accessible for everyone. This day is recognised by the World Health Organisation (WHO) and is a chance for employers, stakeholders and everyday people to talk openly about mental health and discuss how we can work together to improve support.

This year’s theme is ‘Making mental health for all a reality’ and will focus on awareness, advocacy, action and accessibility.

How to observe World Mental Health Day

Inspire, comfort and educate your workforce with a mental health speaker for this year’s World Mental Health Day. The unfortunate truth is that mental health issues are experienced by a huge proportion of the world – meaning that many of us have or will experience mental health issues, or know somebody who does. As such, normalising the discussion around mental health and removing the stigma is at the top of the list for many workplaces.

Education and exposure surrounding these issues by throwing an event to mark the day can go a long way to informing employees about your stance on mental health, showing them that they are supported and understood. Whether it’s a guest speaker, a panel discussion, a Q&A session – these events can also help employees find a community spirit regarding mental health, and can empower workers by establishing a safe space and time to explore the issue together.

Benefits of supporting your employees’ mental health

Companies who invest in their employees’ mental health are likely to see increased productivity, morale and fewer sick days – leading to a happier, healthier workforce. Part of this journey towards recognising and addressing the mental health of employees comes from awareness – and that’s why World Mental Health Day is so valuable. By listening to the stories and insights of speakers, your employees can feel supported, inspired and motivated on the journey towards better mental health.
