21 | People at Work 2023: A Global Workforce View | People at Work 2023:
A Global Workforce ViewPhysical and mental wellbeing of staff remain acute issues too. Encouragingly, most people feel able to have open conversations about their physical (68%) and mental health (64%) at work. And while the majority feel supported by managers and colleagues when it comes to mental health at work, the proportion of respondents who say this is the case is lower this year than last on both fronts.
On the plus side, fewer report that their work is suffering due to poor mental health than said so last year – yet the proportion remains high, at just under half (highest in Asia Pacific. Stress levels have eased slightly too, with 63% of people experiencing
stress at least once a week, down from 68% last year, although nearly two-thirds (65%) say stress adversely affects their work (again, highest in Asia Pacific, along with Latin America).
