Health management in small enterprises: Supporting employees alongside the mental health journey

Abstract

Psychological health management in smaller companies currently still lacks recognition. They often do not have the resources and knowledge to tackle this problem. The support of affected employees, nonetheless, should not be neglected. Absenteeism due to mental illnesses brings along financial and administrative consequences. This should be prevented and hence an employer should know how to minimise harm and support employees with mental health problems. Followingly, the thesis aimed to figure out how support options may look like with keeping the price in mind.
