Stigma around mental health struggles and burnout is costing the UK economy £1.4 billion a year. This can be through unexplained mental health days being taking by workers, according to a new report by Breath.
Due to the stigma around mental health many are taking days off as they are too afraid to discuss the illness with their employer. Therefore it is going unnoticed. Suffering in silence is not the answer as it could cause greater problems for the sufferer, and it also impacts on others taking on the extra work for those off ill.
