Offers employers interactive screening for depression,
bipolar disorder, generalized anxiety disorder and post-traumatic stress
disorder. Via online and telephone screenings, the program encourages
awareness, early detection and appropriate intervention for an organization’s
employees.
Both the online and telephone programs are customized with company-specific
welcome and referral messages directing employees to existing treatment
resources. Reports documenting utilization and screening results are
continuously available.
A recent study revealed the economic burden of depression in the workplace to be
most costly due to “presenteeism.” Depressed workers on the job with reduced
productivity cost employers 44.1 billion dollars annually. (“Cost of Lost
Productive Work Time among US Workers with Depression,” JAMA, June 18, 2003 –
Vol. 289, No. 23 pp. 3135-3144)
