Jobs in the U.S. are more likely to hurt workers' mental health than to benefit it, and that comes at great cost to the economy, according to a new poll. of nearly 16,000 working adults in the U.S. found that nearly one in five workers rate their mental health as only"fair" or"poor," with those employees taking an average of 12 unplanned days off annually.
More broadly, four in 10 workers said their job negatively affects their mental health, versus three in 10 workers who say it makes them mentally healthier. Nearly half of workers under the age of 30 report that their job causes them stress, depression and other issues. By contrast, workers aged 65 and older overwhelmingly say their job has a positive impact on their mental health.
