Investing sustainably for employee mental health

Mental illnesses touch the lives of all Canadians and have a significant effect on productivity, education, relationships between individuals and overall quality of life. These disorders represent a very significant social and economic burden for society. Indeed, they deprive a good number of individuals of a well-being in which they can fulfill themselves, perform productive work while contributing to the life of their community.

Direct and indirect costs

Analyzing the total economic impact caused by mental health-related problems in Canada (direct costs associated with care and indirect costs such as lost productivity), the costs now exceed $15 billion. and this amount is likely to increase annually.

It is now realistic to say that the problem related to mental health constitutes a threat to public health, the quality of life and the economic stability of the country. More than ever, it is important to put forward prevention programs in order to encourage personal development and balance in people who are at risk of developing a mental illness, this is the objective of the PREVENIR program.

Objective

The main objective of the PREVENIR program is to counter burnout among workers by allowing them to overcome their episodes of distress. The tools used respond to the need for balance, thus releasing tension and increasing energy in the participants.

Program content

The program reduces stress in several ways:

By distraction – The program helps participants to take their minds off things, it directs their thoughts away from the sources of stress.

By immersion – The state of being totally invested in expression and has several benefits (relaxation, play, stimulation of creativity).

By taking care of yourself – Body awareness and the pleasure of creating restore balance in all areas of life.

Through self-therapy – The expression of emotions through the means of art relieves and helps to manage stress by expressing the feelings related to it.

Art therapy is a process that helps to manage stress, increase energy and learn to better find harmony. The participant can approach the same type of problem there as in a conventional therapy. However, he engages in the process by creating a work while talking with the therapist.

The end goal of this workshop is to manage complex situations while facilitating communication and creative activity in order to increase self-confidence, concentration and positive feelings.

This activity is characterized by the use of theater as a therapeutic, preventive or personal development process. From a perspective of knowing oneself and one’s various relationships with others, this workshop offers an exploration of one’s repertoire of roles (parents, employee, colleague, friend, etc.) and the functions and values they represent in us in order to to promote a better balance between them.

This fun method is based on a humanist framework that encourages respect for people and their specific difficulties.

Finally, playing together promotes group unity by promoting common energy, in a fun and non-competitive atmosphere.
