Helping Employees Through Trauma

The U.S. workplace is filled with opportunities for trauma. According to the Centers for Disease Control, 27 percent of 888,220 nonfatal work injuries in the U.S. in 2019 (the most recent year for which statistics are available) were related to slips and falls. A recent World Health Organization study revealed that depression and anxiety cost the global economy over $1 trillion per year. Workers can, and do, experience Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) from workplace conditions. Overcoming trauma in the workplace begins with awareness of what is needed to keep oneself healthy, happy, and feeling good. It means doing one’s best to recognize depression and find ways to keep one’s body, mind, and spirit healthy. This webinar focuses on how employers can help employees overcome trauma and achieve physical, mental, and spiritual wellness.
