Supporting Healthier Minds Programme

Although it’s an essential part of life for most people, work is also one of the top sources of stress for employees aged 20-49, according to a Bupa mental health survey in 2019. The same study revealed that a majority (3/4) of respondents were concerned about their mental health. With the ongoing coronavirus pandemic and related changes to our daily lives, nearly half (45%) of Hong Kong executives interviewed in a May 2020 survey are more aware of looking after their mental health and a third (30%) will focus more on employee mental health going forward.

At Bupa, our Supporting Healthier Minds Programme provides employers with the right tools to support their employees and promote mental health and wellness in the workplace. The programme features a wide selection of workshops and activities ranging from education and training to personal enrichment and more.

To serve the varied needs of different companies and employees at all levels, offerings under the Supporting Healthier Minds Programme are divided into two categories. Some example activities are listed below.
