In comparison, fewer workers (44 percent) said their manager had a positive impact on their mental health, and only 34 percent said their job itself had a positive impact on their mental health.        Half say working in HR has a negative mental health impact Almost half of HR professionals (47 percent) say that working in HR has had a negative impact on their mental health and well-being. And 75 percent say working in HR is emotionally exhausting. However, the vast majority of HR professionals (93 percent) find the work they do meaningful, and 83 percent have an overall positive attitude toward the HR profession.       Many workers are unaware of employers' mental health benefits More than two-thirds of U.S. workers (67 percent) say they are unaware or only somewhat aware of the mental health resources their organization provides. When asked which benefits would best support their mental health, workers cited paid time off (43 percent), mental health days (39 percent), flexible schedules (33 percent) and permanent remote work (23 percent).     SOURCE: The State of Employee Mental Health in 2024, SHRM Research survey of 1,405 U.S. workers and 1,734 HR professionals in January/February 2024.     PEOPLE + STRATEGY PODCAST Betsy Rodriguez on  Managing CEO Transitions   Betsy Rodriguez was a CHRO when her organization's president suddenly resigned on live TV.
