A coalition of corporate, academic and nonprofit partners including Bank of America and insurer Axa has developed a tool that employers can use to measure and improve the mental health of their workers.
The assessment, known as the Mental Health at Work Index, will score the effectiveness of an organization’s mental-health programs and recommend enhancements. The goal is to “help define what good looks like,” said Christina McCarthy, executive director of One Mind at Work, the nonprofit that spearheaded the venture.
