Nearly 88 Percent of U.S. Companies are Investing in Mental Health Programs

Mental health programs are increasing rapidly across the country. In fact, about 88% of employers are increasing their investment in mental health programs, according to the 2021 Employee Wellness Industry Trends Report from Wellable. About 81% of companies are investment in stress management, and nearly 69% are investing in mindfulness and meditation. That’s beneficial for companies such as Wellteq Digital Health Inc. (CSE:WTEQ), Teladoc Health Inc. (NYSE:TDOC), Peloton Interactive (NASDAQ:PTON), 1Life Healthcare Inc. (NASDAQ:ONEM), and WELL Health Technologies Corp. (TSX:WELL)(OTC:WLYYF).

“These programs have been growing in popularity in recent years, and the unique challenges created by CV-19 have only accelerated the demand. Bereavement, isolation, loss of income, and fear are triggering mental health conditions or exacerbating existing ones. Encouragingly, employers are taking notice,” according to the Wellable report, as quoted by BBC.
