The Need for Mentally Healthy Workplaces in Hong Kong

With some of the longest working hours globally, Hong Kong’s workforce faces significant mental health challenges. A 2023 study revealed:

  • 1 in 4 workers in Hong Kong experience symptoms of depression and anxiety, severely affecting their ability to perform at work.
  • 70% of individuals with common mental disorders (CMDs) – which account for 30% of all mental health conditions – do not seek any form of mental health support.

These statistics highlight an urgent need for organisations to prioritise staff well-being by fostering equitable and inclusive environments that address the diverse mental health needs of employees. A mentally healthy workplace not only enhances productivity but also cultivates a culture of care, resilience, and belonging—ensuring that every individual feels valued and supported in their unique experiences and challenges.

Shirralee was an excellent facilitator; incredibly knowledgeable, engaging and professional. She went out of her way to ensure the course was delivered effectively, making activities interactive and ensuring everyone had the opportunity to participate. I would highly recommend this course to any of my colleagues and feel I got so much out of it because of the way in which it was delivered.

Really great course with very useful and well explained information about the different mental health illnesses and how to help in a situation of both crises and non-crises.

The instructor clearly knew her stuff and brought with her knowledge from a vast area of working with people suffering from mental health problems.

Excellent presentation with lots of interaction and hands-on discussion which allows us to engage with one another. Excellent memory build-up to help support our ability to remember.

A really useful course and the instructors in-depth knowledge of the issues we covered was impressive and inspiring.

Great program. Enjoyed your positive, casual nature and felt comfortable asking all sorts of questions. Thanks!
