State officers say extra work is required to deal with psychological well being points within the office.

The Michigan Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity (LEO) has launched a brand new web site to function a central hub for psychological well being sources (Michigan.gov/WorkplaceMentalHealth).

Sean Egan is the division’s deputy director of labor. He is main the company’s office psychological well being initiatives.

Egan says the COVID-19 pandemic led to a rise in office stress.

“But at the same time, we started talking about it. So the pandemic really helped us start communicating that ‘Hey, we’re all suffering because frankly we all are.’ And continue to be struggling.”

Egan says 65% of staff say their job is the primary supply of stress of their life.
