The 2020 SMB Mental Health in the COVID Era Paychex Survey revealed that a notable percentage of employees have experienced a decline in their mental health when compared to pre-COVID-19 levels across many issues. Employers should be aware of the percentage of employees who reported feeling worse about the following issues:

Increased anxiety: 31%
Decreased enthusiasm: 24%
Reduced focus: 21%
Increased depression: 20%
Decreased teamwork: 16%

It’s not just employees who are at risk of decreased performance levels. The same survey reported a negative impact of employee challenges on company performance across key metrics that include revenue, profitability, customer retention, employee morale, output, and competitiveness.

Interestingly, employers said they believe employee mental health has improved since the COVID-19 pandemic began, according to the Paychex survey. Such a response reveals a gap between employer perception and the reality of employee mental health.

Additional findings shed light on how employers can help their businesses attract and retain employees by expanding employee wellness and mental health programs. Consider this: 66% of employees reported feeling better about their employer after using a mental health benefit, but 59% of employers are not planning on offering any new programs. Moreover, 60% of all employees surveyed said that mental health support programs and benefits are important when applying for or considering a job. That number jumps to 80% among employees aged 18-39.
