Global Study Reveals Rising Workplace Mental Health Struggles: What Thai Employers and Employees Should Know
A new global study by AXA in collaboration with IPSOS finds that mental health challenges are rising among workers across 16 countries, including Thailand. The report shows stress, anxiety, and burnout have become common in modern workplaces, affecting both individual well-being and organizational performance.
Across the surveyed nations, about one in three workers report experiencing at least one mental health condition. Depression and anxiety are the most frequently cited issues, influenced by financial instability, job insecurity, and constant negative news. Additional pressures such as climate concerns and digital threats contribute to a broader sense of vulnerability. The term “eco-anxiety” has been used by executives to describe this growing stress layer.
