Your Clients are experiencing an increase in mental health-related claims in their workforces.¹ Yet there’s still a lack of understanding on what mental health is, and what it means to be living with a mental illness.

It’s time to change the conversation and our understanding of mental health. We’ve created a new video to support this.

Our new educational video – Uncovering the truth about mental health is under 10 minutes and will help Clients:

• gain a better understanding of what mental health is,
• learn more about how mental illness affects people,
• understand the impact mental health has on their workforce, and
• why it’s import for plan sponsors to support their employees.

We encourage you to watch this video. You can share it with your networks and within your own organization – especially during Canadian Mental Health Week. With this year’s theme, My Story, moving beyond stigma will encourage people to share their experiences.

Free mental health resources

Here are some free mental health resources to support ongoing conversations with your Clients:
