From Google and Microsoft to Goldman Sachs, many major firms now offer support to staff, even though not everyone is willing to talk openly about their issues.

With morale among the working population at an all-time low, firms such as Google and Unilever are offering mental-health support to their employees.

Every month, almost 1,000 of the group’s employees visit the clinic: its resident psychologist has already received 17,000 visits in three years, a figure that continues to rise month on month. Still, it’s not always easy to talk about mental health in a professional setting, even with a specialist. Communications agency Havas has experienced this first-hand: “The feedback we had is that people feel uncomfortable having a therapist on-site. There are issues around confidentiality,” its London branch told the Financial Times in March.

In the United Kingdom, 28% of workers believe their mental-health problems could be detrimental to their career progress if their employer knew about them.
