Promoting safeguarding and supporting mental health in the workplace is essential, as employee wellbeing directly influences productivity, creativity, retention, and overall business performance. In Kenya alone, mental health conditions cost the economy an estimated KSh 62.2 billion in 2021 — making proactive workplace wellbeing strategies not just beneficial, but urgent and necessary. Research shows that a one-point improvement in employee happiness correlates with up to a 12% increase in productivity, with more complex tasks seeing even greater gains.
