For all of the progress society has made in bringing mental illness out of the shadows, a stubborn stigma persists in the workplace

The good news is that businesses that strive for a stigma-free workplace will not only save in healthcare and other costs—they will become better places to work.to the National Alliance on Mental Illness , mental illness is the leading cause of disability in the United States.

Indeed, NAMI finds that eight of ten people suffering from mental illness report shame and stigma prevent them from seeking treatment. Language is critical. Mental illness is often discussed in a way that dismisses how serious it is—describing it as “a phase” someone is going through, for example. Language can also inadvertently blame the victim by implying that mental illness is due to weakness or a lack of willpower.
