On 10 October 2024 we will be celebrating World Mental Health Day with the theme ‘It is Time to Prioritise Mental Health in the Workplace’,
World Mental Health Day is an international day for global mental health education, awareness and advocacy against social stigma. It was first celebrated in 1992 at the initiative of the World Federation for Mental Health, a global mental health organization with members and contacts in more than 150 countries.

High levels of stress, burnout, absence from work and strikes affecting the health and care workforce are a symptom of the current state of health systems. At least a quarter of health and care workers reported anxiety, depression and burnout symptoms between January 2020 and April 2022. No significant reductions have been observed since 2022.
