\u2022 Financial impact: EC $1.4 million<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Medical Insights: The Cost of Mental Illness<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 1 in 5 employees experience a mental health issue<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Many hide their diagnosis out of fear of discrimination<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Mental illness is understood poorly, heavily stigmatized, and deeply disabling<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Global cost of mental health issues:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

o $2.5 trillion in 2017, projected to rise to $6 trillion by 2030 (WHO)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jamion Knight delivered a powerful call to action: support men\u2019s mental health through Psychological First Aid frameworks and intentionally created safe spaces where vulnerability is met with respect, not judgment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

–<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From Employee Assistance Programmes (EAPs) to shift adjustments for working parents, speakers shared tools to help organizations build more supportive, engaged, and emotionally intelligent teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

–<\/p>\n\n\n\n
