As we navigate the complexities of global mental health, it’s clear that Malaysia, like many nations, faces unique challenges in this arena. From workplace stress to societal pressures, the Malaysian landscape offers only a glimpse of the broader global trends in mental health issues at the workplace.

In today’s discussion, we speak with Jason Leong, Founder and CEO of BETTERMINDS, a company that provides workplace mental health solutions with ESG advisory and sustainability. Jason will help us explore these challenges in depth and shed some light on recent surveys that fleshes out the state of workplace mental health in Malaysian industries.

We'll also uncover how these issues manifest economically, the effects it has on productivity and turnover rates, the intersection of corporate responsibility and sustainability, including the ESG and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the role of governmental policies in shaping the landscape of workplace mental health in Malaysia.
