Xero, the global small business platform, today announced the results of its survey,
2020: A Wake-Up Call for Employee Mental Health, examining mental health and wellness in the (now mostly virtual) workplace.
The survey of approximately 1,000 U.S. adults employed full- or part-time showed that COVID-19-related stress has been more damaging to employee mental health (56%) than the political climate, personal finance troubles and workload/workplace culture. In fact, the only issue rated more damaging was the death of a family member or loved one.
African-American employees are much more likely (41%) than their white counterparts (30%) to see the pandemic as having an extremely negative impact.
