Reconnaître la dépression

Depression impacts every part of a person’s life, including health, relationships, and work. Affecting an estimated one in six people at some point in their lives, depression is the leading cause of disability, costing companies billions of dollars in lost work and decreased productivity. ¹ Untreated, it can even lead to earlier death from sickness or suicide.

The good news is that people with depression often respond well to treatment. In recognition of October as National Depression Awareness Month, use these communication pieces to help employees better understand depression and remind them about their EAP benefit.
